What would you do if you picked the wrong major?

Would you go back to school?

Would you just live with your lot?

College has been on my mind a lot lately, with some of my graduate school credits near expiration under the 10-year rule.

With two kids and a full time job, I’ll probably just let them go until I have the time to actually have the time to dedicate to my studies.

In other words, there was no reason for me to take a quiz to help me identify my college major. I already indulged my love of reading and writing and majored in English. Anyway, I’m not one of the high school students the quiz is aimed at.

However, it ended up in my email box and with nothing better to do, I took it.

I seem to have followed the right path:

You are the Artistic Personality Type! Artistic people like to live by their own rules–or no rules at all. They are creative and enjoy working with words or with color. They may be good at drawing, writing, playing music, or telling stories.

Artistic people are intuitive and often know what others are up to. They don’t have dozens of friends, but they have a few very close friends. They don’t like to work in very strict environments. Instead, they prefer to hear about new ideas and try out new things.

Possible degree programs: Art, Music, Writing, Literature, Drama, History, Interior Decorating, Fashion Design, Public Relations, Philosophy, Journalism, Graphic Design.

At this point in life, would it matter if I’d discovered that my interests don’t match up with my career and (eventual)) educational aspirations?
