Acknowledge Your Abilities

Chances are that you're able to do quite a few things! Just look at what you're able to accomplish in your academic, social, work and extracurricular life. These abilities can lend a clue as you determine which major to pursue.

So, take stock of your abilities by asking yourself a few questions:

  • What were my best subjects in high school?
  • What are my best subjects so far in college?
  • What talents have I used in my past jobs?
  • What skills do I bring to my extracurricular activities?
  • What abilities help me do a good job during community service projects?
  • What talents would I like to develop?
