Did you pursue a college course, and you suddenly decided?

Question

when you were in your fourth year, you don't like it,what did you do?

Answer 1

Pretty much, I did that in my 3rd year. I had a different major every year of college:

Freshman: 4-8 grade social studies/english education
Sophomore: Psychology, then High School English Education
Junior: High School Education with a Biology Degree

Then halfway through my junior year I decided I wanted to do nursing. My school didn't have nursing, so that was a bit of a problem. My choices were:

1) to do another year and half (probably a bit more than that too) at an expensive private school and come out with a degree I didn't want and still have to go to nursing school, but stay at school with my friends

OR

2) Transfer to a 4-year university my area that offers nursing, take the hit that most of my credits did not transfer, and end up with 6 total years in school, but come out with a major that I wanted.

I chose option 2, and that was the right choice for me. My friends and family tease me (not in a mean way)... "what you're major this week" but they support what I do and they are happy that I have found something I like. They're all hoping I just stick with this one!

There are a lot of factors that go into a decision like this, and it's not a small decision. Things to consider are: cost, student loans, would you go into another program immediately, etc. Talk it over with friends, parents, significant other (if applicable), maybe a counselor at school (like an academic counselor.

It may be best to just finish that degree and start something new as soon as you are done. Just depends.

Answer 2

Not really, but I know people who did. My college degree choice wasn't the best, looking back on it, but I'm going on to graduate school so it really doesn't matter what I got my undergrad degree in! If I were you, I'd go to grad school in a different course OR see if you can use alot of the classes you took for another college course....you might only have to stick around a bit longer.

Answer 3

OT college is plenty tougher to get into than nursing college. you will have an associate's degree (2 years) or a bachelor's degree (4 years) and be a nurse. To become an OT, you are able to desire to pass to graduate college (that's one greater 2 to 2.5 years after your bachelors). You gets a commission greater as an OT...and OTs are intense in call for on the grounds that all the toddler-boomers are gettin' previous now. :) Nurses are additionally intense in call for appropriate now, so purely come to a determination on in case you prefer the fewer complicated direction to nursing....or the greater tricky direction to OT.

Answer 4

yep.. i think most people went through that thought. I took up Food Technologist in College and later decided its not a course for me. But i pursued it anyways bec I wanted to graduate so badly and just finish anything to do with school. but later i regretted it.. bec i was soo young then and could have tried anything I wanted to know what I really want to be in the future.

so after many many years.. here i am..and not working as a food technologist :)

Answer 5

What can you do? It isn't like you learned NOTHING in your four years. Your future career is not nearly as wrapped up in your college education as you seem to think.
