4條建議：出國留學(xué)專業(yè)該如何選?
    每年選擇赴美留學(xué)的學(xué)生人數(shù)都在節(jié)節(jié)攀升，而這些剛準(zhǔn)備進(jìn)入美國大學(xué)的新生卻被選什么專業(yè)難倒了，他們中的許多人在入學(xué)前都還沒考慮好該學(xué)什么專業(yè)。如果你也是他們中的一個，別太著急，也不要太有壓力，畢竟也有人學(xué)了兩年之后換專業(yè)的。
    有一部分即將進(jìn)入美國一流大學(xué)的留學(xué)新生也會碰上專業(yè)選擇難題。因此這里會給大家?guī)讞l建議幫助大家權(quán)衡專業(yè)該如何選。
    Ask yourself if you want to stay in the U.S. after graduation:
    This question is perhaps the most essential that every international student has to consider. A lot of students want to stay in the U.S. to work and pay off the money that their parents have spent to get them into college, or because they simply think that staying will be more beneficial than going back. These students will usually major in the science, technology, engineering and math fields, since many companies in the U.S. are looking for workers with these skills.
    If you aspire to work in the U.S. after graduation, yet choose a liberal arts degree or one that is not in demand, your chances of fulfilling your ambition may be significantly lower.
    1、首先，想清楚畢業(yè)后你是否打算留在美國
    這應(yīng)該是每個留學(xué)生必須考慮的一個最基本的問題。許多學(xué)生畢業(yè)后會選擇留在美國工作，因?yàn)樗麄兿雰斶€父母供他們的留學(xué)費(fèi)用，又或許他們會認(rèn)為，比起回國，留在美國對自己更有益。有留在美國打算的學(xué)生大都會選擇學(xué)習(xí)科學(xué)、技術(shù)、工程和數(shù)學(xué)領(lǐng)域類的專業(yè)，因?yàn)樵S多美國公司需要這些方面的人才。
    如果畢業(yè)后你想留在美國工作，可大學(xué)里主修的專業(yè)是文學(xué)藝術(shù)類，又或者拿的是其他冷門的學(xué)位，你在美國實(shí)現(xiàn)你報(bào)復(fù)的幾率就會大大減小。
    Review SAT scores and transcripts to determine your academic capabilities:
    Although these may not be the most reflective tools to evaluate your intellectual capacity, they can be informative. A strong SAT chemistry or biology score suggests that you will be well prepared to take on a premed major. If you are wondering whether you will make a good CPA, your SAT critical reading and math scores may be a telling sign.
    2、再看看你SAT的成績單，通過分析這張成績單來判斷你的學(xué)術(shù)能力
    雖然這些分?jǐn)?shù)并不是用來判斷你的才能的最好工具，但它反映的信息是有一定借鑒性的。SAT化學(xué)和生物分?jǐn)?shù)高表明你準(zhǔn)備好了可以進(jìn)入醫(yī)學(xué)預(yù)科專業(yè)。另外，如果你不能確定你能否成為一個好的注冊會計(jì)師，
    你的SAT critical reading成績和數(shù)學(xué)分?jǐn)?shù)或許可以幫助你做出一些參考建議。
    Listen to your parents:
    Some international students may disagree, arguing that their parents do not know what the U.S. educational system is like, or that they don't know as much about the U.S. as their children.
    But parents are usually the ones who know you the best, perhaps even better than you know yourself. Many parents also went to college, so they experienced a similar process.
    3、聽取一下你父母的建議
    許多留學(xué)生可能不太能同意這一點(diǎn)，他們認(rèn)為父母并不了解美國的教育系統(tǒng)，甚至知道的可能還不如自己多。但父母一般是最了解你們的人，他們可能比你們自己更了解你們。他們有些也曾經(jīng)讀過大學(xué)，有過相同的經(jīng)歷，所以有時他們的建議是可做參考的。
    Talk to other international students:
    Spend time talking with other, senior international students, since they have been where you are, done what you are doing and perhaps have valuable experience that you may benefit from. It is helpful if these students attend your school, because they will know the curriculum well enough to give you insightful reviews of each major.
    4、與其他的國際留學(xué)生交流一下
    找機(jī)會與其他高年級的國際留學(xué)生交流。他們之前可能也有過你現(xiàn)在的困惑，所以他們珍貴經(jīng)歷或許能幫助到你。如果他們跟你進(jìn)的是同一個學(xué)院，他們的建議會更有幫助，因?yàn)樗麄儗ο嚓P(guān)課程足夠了解，也能夠?qū)γ總€專業(yè)給出建設(shè)性的見解。
