Many people born with some skills, which define them to society, so it is more than clear what they will dedicate. The question that most have is: if really I like, love or be passionate about are clever. And somebody just to follow the obvious way chose the major similar to his or her abilities, but some others work or given time, like sabbatical.

The problem is that we have no idea to study and each we do a review or some text of academic / professional orientation, the results are mixed or inconclusive and worse, when options gives us results completely different, different areas, ugliest results, because the options they give us, we do not like. And when we realize, we are at one semester to finish high school and we have to decide already our major, apply college admission exams, plus homework, projects and high school exams; the only thought we have is: When finished that? Will I choose right? Can I change the major? Which major is the shortest? (a lot ideas)

And when analysing different school curricula the first thought is: Why so many subjects? The point is, no always we know what choice, if some we like or some we feel passion or maybe the best option is that we have skills, but -what excites me? I guided for something that I have always liked and thanks to God I am good, so I understand that choice a major is not complicated, but rather fulfil everything it wanted.

Communication, it is what I have always said that it would study, instead my best friend chose medicine, and coincidentally that is the option of major what any member of the family supports. In second semester of my major, I had a little existential crisis and I started to dude about my choose to major. If communication is the best to me. Ending the semester to see my grades, and “future me” I knew that it is my major, I mean, I love sleep as if to study medicine, I love go to golden globes, premiers and meet artists, famous people.

I love influence in society; many things can be transmitted with the communication medias, and that is where society is informed about the events. My main purpose is “SAVE THE WORLD” no like superman or supergirl, rather like normal person, educating society with better media content, and that’s what I love about my university, my teachers teach me everything I have to know and the way at which it is better to use.

I thought to choose major was complicated, but when I select my speciality, uff it was really hard, because it was so complicated: television, movies, journalism, radio, new media, marketing & advertising or maybe organizational; the best to me always been marketing & advertising and television; at a crossroads again, although after time it was easier choice because my only question was –from which I will leave better prepared to send the best messages?

My answer was: marketing & advertising, it teach me how to send the better messages and not only the means to send it, the strategic too; but also to a certain sector strategies, consumer, wow it is an amazing world, and make me really happy, search about the tendencies and consumer behaviour, etcetera…

How did you select your major? Was it easy? Are you sure about your major?
