Question concerning college majors.?
Asked by MegI notice that a lot of people don't choose a major in college that they find interesting and have a strong desire to learn more about, but instead, they choose a major that they feel can get them a good job. Were you one of those people, and if so, what major would you have choosen if you had to do it all over again?

Choosing a major that will in end lead to a good job should be pretty high on the list. It is the end goal of joining college isn't it? I went to college with many people that chose based on interests... bilogy, psychology... and now they aren't in those fields as it takes at least a masters, if not a doctorate to get a job that will support an adult. I got lucky...my major (occupational therapy) has led to decent paying jobs..is in demand and is a lot of fun and to me, after 10 years, is still interesting. To each their own...but do keep in mind a career is in the making. You can read and learn about interests in your free time...now is the time to make a plan for the future.
