<p>Nothing is guaranteed!!! I wanted to be an electrical engineer since 4th grade and go to Purdue since 4th grade. Ended up realizing both! Got into the working world and found I enjoyed studying engineering more than practicing it. Went to school evenings to get an MBA. After 20 some years in product management and market research, realized I enjoyed studying business more than doing it. After the tech bubble burst in 2002 went back to school again to get a teaching certificate to teach 6-12 math. Now in my 4th year teaching and love it (more than engineering or business but loved studying those majors). You never know how life will turn out! My son will be going to USC for architecture but while he feels that is what he wants to do and enjoy it, he knows what his plans are in terms of majors in case he finds architecture is not for him (Plan B but I do believe architecture fits him.</p>
