[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How normal is it for a high school senior to know what they want to major in? I hear people say their kids are a computer science major or pre-med. Amy kid has no idea. Could be absolutely anything from English to history to computer science to physics. Or anything else their college offers. Literally anything. [/quote]

I think if a child was a STEM type, they'd know by senior year.  So I'd cross science off the list.

[b]History and english sound useless.[/b]

I'd suggest a business major like finance or marketing.  Or could do communications.[/quote]

Not for people who enjoy writing ([b]well[/b]) and doing research.

Agreed! College is not trade school. It is education.[/quote]

What you may believe constitutes writing "well" may look like slop to a business school grad.  Like those 5 paragraph emails you need mapquest to navigate to find in Act 10, line 1000, there is a deadline or meeting.  Oh God.  I immediately think, well they definitely did not attend business school.  [/quote]
