An undecided major has many ups and downs and drives many viewpoints out of different people on the general topic or idea. Many individuals present different facts and opinions to support their personal views. It has been stated that for those who are undecided and eventually have to pick a major, the career wanted needs to be known. As time cuts down and a major has to be declared, the classes taken to receive the specific major all have to go towards the career as classes may be wasted or irrelevant. On the other hand, it has also been stated that the career for the future does not have to be known at all in order to pick a definite major in the end. With the career being unknown, picking a broad major upon interest goes towards many different careers and is useful along the way when switching from the first career field entered. The difference in perspective that causes this controversy is mainly between newly enrolled college students and the more experienced college students that are going through the experience themselves. Some may even be found from those that have graduated and are now involved with a career.
