I see that Bucknell wants you to pick your major on the application and that the acceptance rate is different for different majors. I’m really torn between Chemistry and English. I am considering putting down Chemistry but what if I get there and it’s not a good match?
I know of someone who was turned down at College of NJ because he wanted to be a Biology major but he could have been accepted for a different major. If I am up in the air, should I just pick the major that seems the best fit or should I be applying to a different college, even tho Bucknell seems to be a good choice?
