[quote=Anonymous]Some kids know, some kids don't. Knowing makes the college application process easier in the sense of more focused, but otherwise either one is fine and perfectly normal. My kid mostly knows what he *doesn't* want to major in - for him, that's anything that requires a lot of math. In my limited experience (I teach grad school), it's not uncommon for kids to figure it out along the way - I know engineering majors who switched to history, several humanities majors who did post-grad premed courses and eventually became very successful doctors, etc etc. But I also know smart, happy, successful people who decided at 10yo what they wanted to be and stuck with it.[/quote]
