One of the biggest decisions of your college career is declaring a major. Many of us are struggling between two (or more) majors. You’re just kidding yourself if you think you can make yourself fit into any other major if you have experienced these 11 things. Here are signs that you should definitely switch.
1. Your professor from last semester introduces you to the department chair in the dining hall.
In case you didn’t know, this is who will sign your declaration form.
2. You struggle not to write too much on the essay exam.
You might have been a little bit too thorough for the time limit.
3. You smash the curve for everyone else in your class.
But you keep that on the down low because everyone else is taking their exams like
4. All your friends ask you for help on their homework.
And some random classmates too.
5. You don’t need to pay attention in class.
But you go anyway because you enjoy it--even when your classmates are dropping like flies.
6. The textbook doesn’t tell you anything you don’t already know.
But you bought it anyway and read it for fun.
7. You’re chummy with all the professors in the department.
Even if you haven’t taken one of their classes yet.
8. You decide to stop answering questions in class unless things get desperate.
Answering them all just starts to feel obnoxious.
9. Your parents start treating you like an expert.
They ask you for advice after you’ve only taken one class in the field.
10. Your favorite class is not in your current field.
If you hate your required courses, you might have chosen the wrong major.
11. After your final exam, your professor asks you yet again if you are going to major.
Finally, you give in.
