Excellent source to help match colleges and their majors January 4, 2009 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This book is one of the most comprehensive guides to uncovering, organizing and simplifying the vast array of information on college majors available to the would-be college student. Though the number of pages is significant, it is organized in a logical, user-friendly manner. There is also a thorough, yet concise, summary on a wide selection of majors. This feature is a valuable resource, as it offers the reader a good sense of what each major is about, why it might be right for them, and possible career options available upon graduation.
Great Book January 2, 2009 Purchased for my daughter who is a Junior in high school. Very informative book which will help her decide where to best apply her talents and then align all of it to a list of possible schools.
