I'm 20 yrs old and a college student. I also suffer from "undecidedmajoritis", a term I just created. I went from dentistry, to culinary, chemisry, and I have arrived at law. I am definite this is the career path I want to embark on. The only way I could really figure it out, was by realizing what I felt comfortable doing at the end of the day. I enjoy learning the law, and visualize myself as a lawyer. So now i'm approaching my junior year and preparing for law school. Take your time, but don't wait until it's too late. The are many different options for students in college who haven't decided a major.

Sounds like youve tested a wide range of majors haha. So law is what you want to do? alot of schooling but a great career for sure.

I also have run the gamut of majors. Liberal Arts was what I chose first because I was undecided and most of the credits are courses you can use in almost anything. Then I went to music performance, behavioral science, art, and then back to music.
By the way I've been a musician for near 20 years now. Most people don't know where their gonna end up. Take some core curriculum classes while your deciding. Good luck.

I went into college undecided and then went into the athletic training field, but I am now a junior and a history major. It takes a bit of time to arrive at your final destination, how are you supposed to know what you want to do at 18? I was always jealous of those people who knew exactly what they wanted to do as freshmen. There is some leeway for the first couple years.
