[quote=Anonymous][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. [b]My kid mostly knows what he *doesn't* want to major[/b] 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] +1[/quote]
