Here in the US I got my AA degree in Music (2 years of college). Then I transferred to the 4 year university to get my BA.

Turned out I decided to change my whole major focus away from music & go for Computer Science. Then I actually made one more change to Accounting with Computer Science as my minor. It took my extra years to graduate but I came out with a major I could actually have a good paying career in.

Go figure... I was doing data entry at a little company that used IBM equipment & programmers. I realized I was just as smart as they were.....& programming & problem solving interested me.....so that was how I actually changed directions. My parents were useless to talk to about stuff like that since they weren't into education in the first place. I had to figure it out on my own & research everything on my own including what I needed to change majors. It can be done.....just takes determination & ACTION & some good ideas to go from.

Nothing worse than taking a FUN major for a degree & finding no career when finished.
