    I too am having this problem of not knowing what to do about my major.
    What to do...?
    I am a nursing major and the sciences are just too hard. I am taking the first of many Chem. and Bio.'s to come. I don't even want to work in a hospital but I want to be a midwife and can't switch schools right now or even in the near future. I am failing and don't know what to do. I have gone to talk to my prof's and actually have a pretty good relationship with them and feel comfortable with them. It's not them, it's me!!! I try to read the text books but it's really hard and not what i am used to. I go to class everyday. I take good notes. I have gone to tutoring and still I am not getting it. Should I switch to something that I do better in like psychology or soc.? I am interested in these fields as well and last year got A's in both. I always used to score high in these in school. The only problem is that to get my loans paid back I have to go into a med. field or law enforcement or education.
    AHhh what to do.
    My instincts are battling. I want financial securtiy, I have kids to provide for but the other part of me says go with what you know and in this case it's soc. and psyche. and be a counselor or something. But I want to save lives and be useful and self reliant. oh please help
