Major Undecided?

I know a lot of girls who came into college undecided of their major.  There is nothing wrong with this, especially if you are attending a liberal arts school (A "liberal arts" school can be defined as a "college or university curriculum aimed at imparting general knowledge and developing general intellectual capacities, in contrast to a professional, vocational, or technical curriculum." -Encyclopedia Britannica).  If you are undecided, take this quiz I've created!*  Tally up your points to see which area of study fits you best.  It may help steer you in the right direction.
