[quote=Anonymous]Yes. I have three kids. One always knew what she wanted to study and once she was able to do that in college, she was so happy to be free of general education that she bloomed. The other was always curious and had a lot of interests and did a 180 on majors in college. The last had a deep interest that they were able to explore - but developed a new interest in their minor. That new interest actually became the impetus for a post-graduation job. Give your kid a bit of time. The first year of college may not be that intellectually exciting if they don't like their gen ed teachers. But sometimes it's a club, or a person with a unique perspective, or an elective that they never even planned to take but it satisfied the requirement and met at the right time - and it's like a lightbulb goes off.
