Answer 3

Your major will help you get a job and be what you want to do with your life. So, if you plan to be a Chemist, you major in Chemistry. It's what you do most of your hard classes in.

Your minor is something that supports your major or something you're interested in. So, if you are a Chemistry major, but like drama, you could minor in it and take fewer classes in it for fun. OR, you could choose a minor that helps you look well-rounded. So... like an English major with a Journalism minor.
