+1. Congrats to you, PP, as well. Raising multiples is no easy feat, not to mention funding 3 tuitions at once.

OP here - I realize many kids (including my own) may change major but since one typically applies to a school/college within the university based on some sort of intended major, I thought that was relevant and also interesting to see what schools kids are choosing for their interests.
Thanks so much to all who have posted - I’ve enjoyed seeing the end results of our kids’ hard work.

Agree! It’s crazy how schools want kids to list majors (not just schools) when they apply.
At some schools you are committed, but at many others its just an "intended major," which generally helps the school know they can keep all the professors' classes filled instead of accepting 500 students who all want [insert popular major here], which would mean most of them couldn't get the classes they need, and then you have unhappy kids and underutilized professors.

WTF are you talking about? My pre-med has been taking college level courses since sophomore year. All sorts of subjects.
DP: AP/IB/DE Community College classes aren't really college equivalents.
Uh, yeah they are.
no they really aren't (not PP). My DD aced all their AP and DE classes, not so much when they actually got to a real college.
Community colleges are ''real colleges'' you jackass.

UVa must think differently than you, regarding classes taken at community colleges.
