All very interesting! She is the one antsy to figure this out. I didn't choose my major until halfway through my first year. And I know that so many people don't work in their major so it's good to hear real life situations. Last night she said no English! She is in AP Lit and sick of analyzing literature . If anything besides Theater, she thinks Communications (for now anyway). But really she wants theater. My main concern is finding some place reasonably nearby and affordable
I think part of this is her sister being in college and though they're 2 years apart in school, and almost 3 years apart in age, DD16 has never been too far behind her sister so she feels like it time for her to figure out her next step too.
I would definitely reassure her that figuring out her major is not the end-all and be-all of the world. I always felt that what you did in college solidified what you did for the rest of your life, but I realize now how wrong that is!
Is she involved in theatre now?

This sounds like a good field for your (OP) dd to go into, since it sounds like there is a shortage (if she might have an interest in something like this.)If she's strong in science and English, communication sciences and disorders wouldn't be a stretch. She could then go onto grad school and become a Speech-Language Pathologist. If she works with the preschool population, imaginative play is STRONGLY encouraged.
I'm a Speech Path. It's a great career, and quite frankly, we are reaching critical shortage levels. The classes for the major are very science AND language based, but more grammar and language development...not analyzing literature. It DOES require a master's to become licensed and certified.
