Last time I talked about that the result of the major choosing in my survey is quite shocking. And I did not talk about the decision I made for myself as an international student.
Well, this is never an easy decision to make. I am fully aware of that the college time is so valuable that I cannot afford to make a random decision with no reason. I need to consider carefully what might be useful for me after I graduate because the brutal competition out of the campus will be waiting for me at that time. However, college is also a place where I am supposed to spend time in achieving myself and it would be a wonderful opportunity for me to study the things I really like.
People are usually greedy. From my perspective, the decision between these two options will never be easy for anyone to make, including me. On the one hand, it is the subject that can be really helpful for me future. That is to say that with the professional knowledge of this subject, I can find myself a decent job. A decent job with high salaries means too much in this ruthless society. On the other hand, it the subject that I desire to learn more about it. All my interests are on it and I am willing to devote myself into this subject even though it is a hard major.
Take myself as an example. The subject I love most is psychology. I want to learn everything about it; I want to understand the way our brains’ make the decisions, every reason behind our action, and the strategies to control the feelings. There are so many things about psychology that I want know and right now, I still want to know. But, I did not choose psychology as my major.
I did a a lot of thinking before I made this decision. I checked the salaries that I may able to receive after I graduate; the result is that the salary is even far below the average level. I also realized that it can be more difficult for an international student to read tons of files and books.
All these factors are the reasons that I did not choose psychology as my college major. I know that it’s is an interesting major, but I want to get prepared for me future also.
So, I guess I am just like those 90 percent international students; I made the decision that I chose a major that is not my favorite, but it can be really helpful for my future.
Right now, I doubled finance and computer science as my majors. I know it sounds like that I can find the best job in this world after I graduate. But, it is also really exhausted. To be honest, I am still not sure whether I made the right decision or not, but I think maybe I can come up with something new after I do more study on my survey results.
Yes, I want to still do more thinking about this problem for myself.
There will be more…….
