What does everyone want to major in or are majoring in? If you don't know, what field/area do you wish to enter?
I really have no idea what to put my major as, and I really should decide.

Are you working on college apps too? I have the exact same problem as you do. I don't know what to major in. I'll probably be undeclared till my sophmore year at college, but I still need to put something down. My top three most probable are business administration, journalism, or communications.

I'm already working towards my college major: Computer Science/Programming I'm earning an A(98.73%) so I'd say I'm doing fine, however I'm earning a B-(80.21%) in math so I'm worried that might affect my grades and my major.. as Computer Science/Programming is related to math.

Yea, and I'm working on my essays and filling out the forms. I can't stand that cryptic language on the application, sometimes I really don't know what they are asking. Right now I'm putting engineering, but I'll probably stay undecided.

I'm thinking about computer science too, and I don't think they'll mind your math grade, especially since it's still a B. I don't think they'll ever see the actual number grades so they don't have to know that you have a low B. I really don't like higher level math either. Multivariate is boring, and I don't see much point in learning what a calculator can already do better. A TI-89 can take derivatives and integrals, and it doesn't mess up along the way.

Well those are cool majors. I know that I could never do communications/journalism. I know there are a lots of different areas, but I can just imagine myself doing a report about some widow that had just lost her husband in a fire, and me just cracking up, unable to stop laughing. It's not that it is funny, but I can laugh at just about anything.
I think I just need to go through a list of majors and just cross some off a list. I must be negative since I have no trouble finding things I know I won't like.

I will probably go for a double major with BA and Economics or Economics and Microbiology.
