I am not sure what level of education you are at, and though I do not have a background in this field I believe I may be able to help.
For every college I have looked at there are a list of required classes that come when taking the course. For my field of study Zoology it stated that I HAD TO take an anatomy, ecology, biology, ect, and then there were a few "elective" type of classes within my major that allowed for a bit of variation. On top of that, any major confusion that got in my path could be solved by talking to a career advisor, academic counselor, or professor who is closely associated in your field.
Universities have a wealth of options for their students (partially why they cost so much$$$) and I highly encourage for you to look at all the different resources yours has to offer. In getting my degree I became worried that my interests may be better suited in a different degree (Wildlife instead of Zoology). I took the steps to talk to my Academic Advisor (assigned to me once entering school, and can be changed to a different person if you dont feel comfortable with yours), to a career advisor and the department head in Zoology and Wildlife. These steps gave me the confidence that I was in the right major and not to worry.
To wrap up my rant. The worry of taking the correct classes is easily solved by looking at the required course list for your school and discussing it with many professionals at your campus.
