college problem with major
I don't know what I want to major in in college. I want a bachelor's degree.
It's hard for me to decide because I don't want to take 20 classes in one area, like business or anthropology or what-not. I have researched [using collegeboard.com] "general studies" majors and "general foreign languages" majors [because foreign languages are the only thing I excel at], but the colleges are limited.
What do you suggest I do? I'm not interested or motivated enough to take so many classes in one area. =/

Maybe give some free advice about: Colleges & Universities?
If your not motivated enough to take all the classes needed in one area for a bachelors degree, then maybe you shouldn't be enrolled in a bachelors degree just yet. Like the last person mentioned, you can start out as an undeclared major. If you want to take specific classes, then you might want to start an associates degree in whatever your interested in, like a foreign language. Most classes, aside from the boring general education classes are only open to students seeking a degree in that subject.
Working at an associates degree and having an undeclared major will help you decide what you want to take 20 or so classes in. Because, if you plan on getting a BA, then your going to have to do that eventually.
You also might want to think about how those classes are going to help you in the future. Do you really want to spend thousands of dollars on something that your not going to be able to make any money with to help you pay off that thousands of dollars?

Go as either a liberal arts major or an undeclared major. That way you can take whatever classes you want. If you become interested in something while you are there, you can easily change your major to whatever you want. Many colleges specialze in liberal arts. Good luck! :)
