The college major selection process doesn't have to be stressful—it's about finding the right direction through thoughtful reflection and good information rather than having everything figured out at 17.

• About one-third of college students change their major at least once
• Many East Coast schools don't require declaring a major until sophomore year
• Focus on questions about what energizes you rather than what looks impressive
• Different college models: liberal arts exploration vs. pre-professional programs
• Medical schools care more about grades and prerequisites than your specific major
• Consider job prospects, grad school requirements, and the balance between passion and practicality
• Research different majors, talk to professionals, try classes, and reflect on what excites you
• The best major is one that challenges you and helps you grow, not one that defines your entire future
