Some college freshmen find that the courses they choose are not suitable for them. What are the causes of this? What can be done to solve the problem?

#college #freshmen #courses
It is often observed that some college freshers do not find the
course
 they have opted for, appropriate for them.
This
 might be
due to
 the lack of knowledge about the
course
 they have opted for.
This
 can be solved by giving detailed
information
 about courses in advance to the students. I will elaborate on my points below. Some people are not able to find the right path for their career before going to college, so they choose a
course
 they think suits them best. But later they find out that the
course
 is not appropriate for them and they have interest in some other
course
. Sometimes it may
also
 happen that a student is confident about a particular
course
 and enrols for it but after some time he finds out that the
course
 is not meeting his expectations and he would like to opt for some other
course
. These problems are very common nowadays as people have become more focused on their careers. To tackle
this
, I propose that students should be given a very detailed description of each
course
, the
course work

coursework
show examples
 they can expect, the outcomes of the
course
 and the number of hours they have to put in.
This
information
 will help the students in making an informed decision. Even after giving
this
information
 if some student still wants to change the
course
,
then
 a provision should be made
such
 that they can switch to their desired
course
 after passing the first year. In conclusion, I would say that having a lack of knowledge about one's

 or expectations not being met can lead a student to want to change
course
.
This
 can be solved by providing detailed
information
 about each
course
 offered and a chance to change the
course
 after the first year.
