Choosing a Major

Ask yourself,what type of activities would I do naturally? Do you like reading, writing, debate or math? Let the subjects you enjoy guide you in choosing your classes and your major. This is important because if you don't like a subject, you may find it difficult to maintain interest in the class.

If you choose a highly specialized field, such as computer science, accounting, engineering, or medicine, you're classes will require you to go to the extreme realms of the Study Zone. Regardless of your major, know that you will have to develop good study habits and learn how to manage your time outside of class.

Many employers, however, want to know two things; you graduated and have a G.P.A. that is through the roof. They also look at your previous work experience (think summer internships). Your campus and community involvement, communication skills, and portfolio all speak to your potential work skills.

People spend years building a career. The good thing about this is that you are young  and have lots of time to make changes in your career path. The other good side is that its never too late to try a new career.
