Answer 1

well, only you will be able to answer that. when you read this close your eyes and remember. What activity do you like. do you like math, or science or drama ect. also it also depends on what you would like to be when you grow up. if you want to be a teacher. i would say math major. if you want to be a famous actor or sing take music or drama majors. you have to look inside of you. deep down in that brain everyone know the answer to their questions. they just forget them. they are in the back of their mind. because like in a game when you savea game you delete the other one. which is like saving a new memoery every day.

Answer 2

what are your interests and what are you good at?

Many people don't know what they want a degree in and many people change their minds.  Just start by going to a 4 year college and taking the required classes and anything that sounds interesting.  You have a good one or two years in which you can do that.  So, while you are taking these classes maybe one will really interest you.  

Also, there are great resources at universities and colleges, such as counselors or career centers to help students.  

My advise is not to worry about it so much, you still have time to figure it out.  And who knows, it may not matter too much in the long run, but usually having a 4 year college education really helps you find a job.  Many positions these days require college.  

Answer 3

Start out by taking basic classes your first semester (English/writing, social sciences, history, etc.), and eventually make an appointment to talk to a career adviser. Tell them what you're interested in doing and what subjects you like, and they may be able to give you a little input of their own.

You may even be able to take a career aptitude test, which will test your knowledge and give you career suggestions based on what fields you excell in.

Answer 4

All freshman courses are usually the same for every degree (unless medical).  Go and take your basic classes as you figure out what you want to be when you grow up.
