<p>Im still not 100% sure what major to choose but im afraid it might hurt my chances. What do you guys think?</p>
<p>Most undergraduates switch majors whether or not they enter as undeclared or not. Colleges are fully aware of this. You’re in good company. </p>
<p>Stop worrying</p>
<p>EDIT: I bet someone is tempted to post “But if you DON’T DECLARE a major, you’ll miss out on showing your PASSION!! Thereby sealing your fate!!”</p>
<p>My reply: top schools want people hungry to learn and even explore new things. Not people who are pre-professionals at seventeen.</p>
<p>yeah but i think my teachers might put something about my major in their reccomendation letter :/</p>
<p>You can put whatever you want. It is not binding. I doubt they pay too much attention to it. </p>
<p>BTW, on one of my daughter’s interviews, she was asked, and she said was undecided, and the interviewer (who was an adcom, not an alumus) said “I can tell you are one of those people who cannot decide because you have so many options, not because you simply do not care.” I thought that was such a lovely thing to say.</p>
<p>I don’t think so 
It is normal. relax…</p>
<p>Put whatever you want. It hurts only if they think you are trying to game them. (ie, you have suddenly, out of nowhere, discovered a burning love for an undersubscribed dept)</p>
<p>It might even be better than an oversubscribed major.</p>
<p>Actually, my D did end up declaring majors, but only because you could list three of them and because she knew it was nonbinding. We also talked her into listing math, which is probably not in the running, but may end up being a minor. She has some pretty nice math honors on her application, and it seemed a pity not for them to think she might actually be a math major. Maybe some schools might want to encourage female math majors. So, yes, just a little gaming there, though, I am hoping that she will get in touch with her inner-mathematician when she gets to college.</p>
