In your first year of college, it's a good idea to pick one major you're sure about. This helps you understand what to expect and see where your interests take you. You can add a second major later if you want. If you're sure about two different majors from the start, go ahead and try them both. You can always change if needed. It's wise to choose related fields for your majors so you can finish college in 4-5 years.
From my own experience, I started college aiming for a bachelor's in Science, planning to go to med school because my parents wanted that for me. But in my first year, I found out I really didn't like biology. So, I switched to architecture, which I loved. I spent long hours working on projects like my classmates. By the end of that year, I realized I needed a master's degree for a good job in architecture. So, I rethought my goals and decided to switch again to Industrial Engineering, while keeping a minor in arts, which I enjoy as a hobby. It was the best decision ever! I got a great job right after graduation, and 11 years later, I still love what I do. It's a career I recommend because it opens doors to many fields like business, technology, and more.
