[quote=Anonymous]I agree with much of what has been said. I don't think your daughter sounds 'scattered,' just not laser-focused yet on what profession she wants. This is age-appropriate! A lot of schools have a college of arts and sciences (where students apply for majors other than engineering, music, and other specific fields that may have their own 'colleges' within the school), and no problem with students applying with their major undecided. It'd be worth discussing with her whether she sees herself working in a scientific/mathematical field, a social science field, or a liberal arts field. She may not know what she wants to do, but she may know that she doesn't want to do X or Y. (Of course, she could take more of X or Y in college and discover that she loves it, with a professor who makes her think differently about it. But she may know her general inclination.)[/quote]
