I am currently enrolled as a computer science major. However, I lost my passion for computer science after I took my class First Semester Freshman year. I found out that it was not what i truly wanted to do. I did not do well in the class as well. I also do not want to take 4 levels of calculus. I am not super good at math either. I would not mind taking 2 levels of calc/math but not 4. My true passion is psychology. I took it in both high school and college and got a B+ and A. I truly enjoyed the class. I enjoyed the subject matter and studying for it was not a chore for me, but rather an actual interest. I terribly miss my psych class and would almost do anything to be in it again. As of right now, I am not allowed to major in psychology. My parents fear that i will not get a job with that major. I appreciate their consideration for me, but psychology is my passion. I am well aware of the risk, and am willing to take it. I plan on going to grad school and possibly minoring in something to make myself more qualified. I am mostly interested in I/0 psych, marketing psych and school counseling. I cannot possibly see myself in a computer science major. I dread taking those classes. If i do indeed follow a career path in CS i will only be doing it for the money. This is a big issue for me because it often makes me sad (very sad) and I dwell on the issue and cant stop thinking about it. I am noticeably sad and down when i do think about having to major in something i really do not like. I fear bringing up the issue again because I do not want get in trouble or to come out the wrong way. I appreciate everything i have , but this is something that i really need to talk about and change. What is your advice?
