"Well what subject did you like best in school?" Is the worst way to choose a major and it's terrible that college recruiters use it to rope fresh-HS graduates into signing up.
For anyone considering college in the next few years, you should really consider college as a career prep rather than a place to simply learn more. Unless you've got the money and support network to just dilly dally for 4+ years, you should be going in knowing 100% what you want to be doing with your life and make sure that courses you're taking the the connections you make are getting you there.
Easier said than done. At that age, with no professional experience, it is really hard to know what you want to do for the rest of your life.
there's no law that says you need to do college at 18. i started at 26, and it would've been a waste before that. i hadn't even discovered any learning passions until just a couple years before that.
so maybe just avoid that problem like i did?
No it isn’t. People just don’t think about it….like ever. It also requires being honest with yourself which is a too tall order for most.
Even if you do, you may not find answers. Obligatory: not everyone has the same experiences as you, and that's okay.
