Lost college student...?

my second year of college is coming to an end. i've mainly been taking the general requirements and have completed all of them. in addition, i have taken 4 classes in pursue of a degree in elementary education. after this year, i realized that i do not want to be a teacher. i kind of want to go into business but feel like it's kind of late to go into something new my junior year that most people have been in since their first year at college. since i am so undecided, and have no idea why i am even going to college... i am faced with a dilemma. it's time to register for classes, and i cannot get myself to do it. i'm a good college student. i'm on the dean's list and have every intention of getting a degree. however, i feel like it would be silly to stay here and waste my time and money on classes that i am not sure i even want to take. would it be absolutely foolish to take a year off after 2 years of college to work and save up some money? i've gone thru a lot since i have an apt

Reply:if it's completely necessary, just take a semester off. but of course it's not too late to change your major. if you end up changing your mind again, business is always a good thing to minor in.
Reply:better you consult your college councillor. it appears that you have confused your self.after having teaching education you want to drop the idea.very tough job.takre your time and decide with cool mind.
Reply:I know how you feel a bit. I was at a big university as an elem, ed. major but I hated the school so I transferred to comm. college. I love that school, but I don't want to be a teacher anymore. I took classes in a few other fields but I still don't know what I want to do. Eventually I decided maybe a degree just wasnt for me. (I had all A's in high school and high SAT score.) Now I am a store manager and make really good money. I am 20.


My advice is just to follow your heart. You know inside what you want to do. Don't worry about what others think you should do, just do what you want. It's a good idea to save up some money, its always a good thing to have!
Reply:Take your time. College is part of the life experience. It took me 5 years to get my BAs. Here is another hint. Check your college's requirements for a "double degree", instead of ever choosing a "double major". Since you already have so many credits, you might as well try. That is how I found my solution. I aimed for two degrees instead of one. I chose Psychology Research and Sociology. Now I am going for my Masters of Criminology.





BIGGEST hint of all. Don't quit yet. Don't take a year off.
