[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]well if you're aiming for Towson State or somewhere like that it probably doesn't matter; but if you're aiming for Duke or any of the more selective schools you had better be prepared to tell them what your main area of interest is.[/quote]But what you tell Duke with your carefully crafted elevator speech is one thing.  What you really think and want to do is another.  Kids change when they go to college.  Yes, these days you do have to have a plan about finding employment and building a career but as a freshman? That's premature.[/quote]

^ yes of course. I'm the pp you quoted and I quite agree - but the point is you have to tell them [i]something[/i]  - you're not likely to get in if you admit you're really not too sure what you want to major in.[/quote]Okay then the problem is that the kid doesn't know how to promote herself -[b] not that she doesn't have a specific major in mind[/b].[/quote]

huh :?: The OP said she doesn't have a specific major in mind.[/quote]
