Being in high school or a freshman in college, all you hear about is what major you are considering. It is a daunting thing for most as this is what dictates what will come out on your diploma and what classes you will be taking. For others, they already have a few choices or one set choice in mind as they have a pretty clear idea of their dream career. For a concerning minority, they choose a random major they believe will be the “easiest” or genuinely don’t have anything in mind. Whatever the situation students may be in, at some point they will need to declare a major.
