Okay guys, I've got to pick a major, so these are my options:

- European studies (I've got to get 4 semesters of German first - there is a choice of French, but not interested ;) )
- Psychology
- English Language & Literature

Any suggestions? Better to hear from someone who has done a major in any of the 3 mentioned above :D

I'm doing a CIS and Business program, which is actually going to end up screwing me.

I'll be in this program and taking all the classes to meet the requirements, but I won't have a distinct major. If I want to work on a masters degree or PHd, I'd have to start from scratch basically, because the CIS/Business program doesn't cover anything.

I'd say major in something and don't do a program. :)

Computer science? I'm an Arts and Social Science student :D And it's booooooooooring to me... :stickout

I was thinking of majoring in European Studies, but there's one catch - I'm taking Japanese, so that means 2 languages... :eek:

I was a history major. Do yourself a favor and, unless you plan on graduate school, get a degree in something for which there is a market.

Psychology. That's the only one of the three that will get you a job in any field other than teaching.

Well... here's the question you've been avoiding (me too as well)...

What do you want to do w/ your life? :D....
