Is There A Test That Can Show Me My Strengths And Weaknesses In Terms Of Choosing A College Major?

College Selection
I am currently an Architecture Major, but I am also a bit confused about this choice, so I was just wondering if there is some sort of a test out there that will make things a little clear for me…I am an all around good student…so it is unclear what is my weakness or strength.
Thanks for your help!

You are looking for an Interest Inventory test. There are lots of them! If your school has any type of career counseling center, then they most likely have an interest inventory that you can take.
The college board website also has a page to help high schoolers learn their learning styles and interests to help choose a major. I don’t know if will help, but you can try it!http://myroad.collegeboard.com/myroad/na…

Literacy and Quantitative Numeracy.
–Basically critical reading/writing and mathematics.–
There’s a test called the SAT that’s been used over the years.
Calculus is another good benchmark. If it comes easy to you, go with a quantitative major.
If not, go for a major involving lots of writing.

Visit your career center and they will have various career/major assessments to help you in deciding a major/career. It is free of charge for current students.
