So I'm a second year college student, and I have NO IDEA what I want to do! Seriously. I went into college with SO many goals and desires, and a lot of ambition. I had an idea of what I wanted. Now...nothing!

Really, my school offers a decent selection of majors:
-Architecture
-Interior Design
-Education
-History
-English
-Art (History of, Graphic Design, Photography, etc)
-Political Science
-Mechanical Engineering
-Civil
-Biomedical Engineering
-Math
-Biology
-Chemistry
-Geology
-Psychology
-Business
-Nursing

.....There are plenty of others! But the thing is, nothing seems to interest me. And what would interest me in the long run, I can't get through. I'm not good in the Math & Chemistry crap, so it's out of the question for me. I feel completely lost. I don't wanna do something that I'll never be able to get a job with....

Liberal arts major.

You don't have to pick a major... just take your basic classes for your first year, then focus on a major... it'll present itself in the near future.

That's even more vague..

Yeah. I've just done a semester in Law, but it's really boring, so I'm going to have to choose something else, and I have no idea what.

I'm second year. All my basics are complete, so next semester I need to start taking classes for my major.

And, no offense, but I just don't see what I could do with the liberal arts degrees...What can be done with a English or History degree?

my uncle has a degree in economics but now he is a project manager for a big software development firm and makes lots of money.  So, my point is you should pick a major that provides a well rounded education and then you can always go into something else later.
