Why you selected your major

I came back to school in the summer of 2007 at Normandale Community College.  At this point I had little idea about what I wanted to pursue as a major.  Previous ideas I had but decided to shoot down were a massage therapist and a nursing assistant.  Just this last spring of 2010 I had taken a Career Exploration class.  I took a couple of extensive tests and I recall getting Speech Pathologist and Optomitrist as a couple best matches based on my interests and people in those occupations interests having a high match.  Something that I always wanted to do but decided against was working with computers because everyone has told me that I should work with people, plus I hate when things are frustrating.  At the end of the spring semester I signed up to enroll in a dental assistant program, but after a bit of consideration, decided that I really didn't want to work in people's mouths.  I then recondsidered the idea of getting into an IT program, I realized I can do what I want if I got a career in this.  I can help people, and I would still work with and amongst people, so I happily decided to go for a Associates Degree in Computer Support and Network Administrating.  But I really would like to go for a Bachelors Degree in IT at the U of M.  I am not sure if I can ever afford that, but I feel like in this industry I need to get a higher education than others in order to be successful in my pursuit of a job in this field.
