Is it better to have a major set in your mind when you enter College or keep it as undecided until you've taken a few different classes?

Some college reps have said that keeping your major undecided is better and I just want to know if thats true.

Mario’s Answer

Hi Keyla, I think to answer this question you should first think about your own interests and the things that you like to do or would like to do in the future. For instance, are you usually drawn to the investments section of a newspaper or a publication? then finance may be a good fit. Do you enjoy photography? then maybe you should consider a career in arts. Do you like to care for animals? perhaps a path to veterinary school is for you. Thinking about your interests should narrow your choices which you can then discuss with a career counselor at your school. If you can't think of anything that stands out then that's ok! you can start with an undecided major and start exploring different classes to see which ones catches your attention the most and which ones align better with you own skills and strengths.

Mario recommends the following next steps:

Make a list of your interests/passion to see which major aligns with these
Discuss your interests with your school's career counselor
