School year recently ended for me and now I have to decide a major for junior year. This might seem unimportant to you all but in Malaysia, junior year is the most important year. If you choose the wrong major and screw up junior year, say goodbye to senior year and college. You're doomed.
So I've narrowed it down to two - Science and Business and Finance. I hate Science with a passion. I have no interest in it and I just hate it. I am considering this because everybody says you'll have a wider field to choose from when you head to college and all. And that's true. Plus my mom is really counting on me to be like my cousin who is majoring in Science and has straight A's. Business and Finance on the other hand, is something that I am very interested in. I've dabbled in Accounting and Econ in my previous years and I think they're worth continuing. But here, Business is where all the flunkies go. Science is for the truly smart people. I'm afraid that if I mix with the wrong people, I'll end up like them too. I mean, sophomore year, I was in a class with people who actually failed, believe it or not. I hung out with them for a bit and then I discovered that I was starting to get lazier. So I know it might happen in junior year is I take Business and Finance. I've talked with a few of my close friends and they all say 'follow your heart'. Unfortunately I live in the real world where people get screwed up all the time for 'following their heart'. My ex thinks that I should take Business and Finance and do something I'll really enjoy and won't have such a hard getting straight A's. I think that if I were to major in Science, I'd still be able to do well. But it would take a lot of hard work and effort because I'm not interested in Science at all. And the posibillity of getting straight A's would be... bleh. If I were to major in Business and Finance, I'd be able to relax a bit because there are less classes to take. And I know I'll be able to do good. Classes I will take if I choose Science: English Bahasa Malaysia English Lit Modern Math Morale Ed History Chemistry Physhics Biology Add. Math EST PE Visual Art Accounting Econ Classes I will take if I choose Business and Finance: English Bahasa Malaysia English Lit Modern Math Morale Ed History General Science Econ Business Accounting Add. Math PE Visual Art I heard from American friends I take a lot of classes... Does seem like a lot to me though. O.o So if you've actually read through all that or at least skimmed through, tell me what you think. Coz I need more opinions before I can make up my mind. |

This makes me sick...
1. I hate talking about college and what people are going to major in... 2. It's your life and your decision... 3. Along with number 2... why do you need OUR opinions? It's your damn major not ours... 4. Do you honestly think we give a shit? 5. We don't want your damn life story. |

I chosen a major I would enjoy so I picked Computer Science field. Not sure exactly which one but I know alot about computers so it be easy and yet, hard.
Pick one that will help you get what you want in the future. Not a major that you regarded doing. |

I'm in college right now and I know a lot of people who are science majors. Take it from me, don't do it. Science majors have no lives. They have the regular science class, then a recitation, then a lab, on top of the other credits they need.
If you hate science, then what's the reason for asking which you should pick? If your heart is in Business, do that. There are very good business schools out there. [begin plug]Like NYU's Stern School of Business[/end plug]. And does Donald Trump look like a flunky to you? ![]() |

choose what you're interested in, not because other people want you to choose it or because it'll get the most money. if you hate your job what's the point, right? haha.
