Easy major choices?

Hey everyone! I'm a high school junior and I'm currently trying to decide on a major for college. I've heard that some majors are more manageable than others. What are some relatively easy majors to consider? I'd appreciate any insights or suggestions, thanks!

Hi there! When you're considering majors, it's crucial to think about not only the ease but also your personal interests and long-term goals. However, it's understandable that you might want to explore options that could be perceived as more manageable.

Some majors that are often considered less demanding include Communications, Sociology, or English. But keep in mind, the difficulty of a major can vary significantly based on individual strengths and the specific coursework. Keep in mind that even 'easier' majors can still present challenges and require dedication.

As you continue to explore different majors, I would recommend:

1. Attending information sessions to learn more about various majors

2. Connecting with students or professors in different departments

3. Researching job prospects and potential career paths for majors that interest you.

Ultimately, it's essential to find something you're genuinely passionate about, as this will make the coursework more engaging and manageable. Good luck! 😊
