As you begin the exploring majors process, take some time to think about your:

Values (Making a difference, stability, creativity, flexibility, being a leader, etc.)
Interests (Reading, gaming, design, research, outdoor activities, etc.)
Personality (Introvert or Extrovert? Take charge or take direction? Free-form or structured?)
Skills (What skills come naturally to you? Which ones require more effort and practice?)

Knowing these things about yourself is an essential first step on your path to the major that fits you best.
