Unless you're a college junior, I don't understand your anxiety. You have plenty of time to pick a major.</p>

<p>According to [url=<a href="http://www.crc.ufl.edu/students/decisnmakng.aspx%5DUF%5B/url"&gt;http://www.crc.ufl.edu/students/decisnmakng.aspx]UF[/url&lt;/a&gt;], 70% of students end up changing their major at least once. :rolleyes:</p>

<p>You'll just have to have patience with this ;)
Pick a college with good majors all around, take a course or two on each of the subjects that interests you, and then you should be able to choose. If you can, investigate college course or summer programs that would let you study particular areas of interest. But don't worry; you have time.</p>

<p>Some people don't have time though, because they have to apply to a specific school within a university.</p>

That's only for a limited number of majors though. Architecture (BArch), engineering, some business, and some schools in the fine/performing arts are the only ones that come to mind. If you can eliminate those, you're good.</p>
