The College Board Book of Majors : First Edition

Summary: New and Improved...and User Freindly
Review: As a high school guidance director in a college-prep HS, I was delighted to see the College Board produce a more thorough and useful guide. It's bulkier than the previous "Index of College Majors" but the typeface and layout are easier to manage. The first part of the book (new), provides in-depth explanations of the majors. This section is clearly and conciely written and gives readers a better understanding of what each major involves and where it will lead. Finally, there's a guidebook that combines career/major information and listings, by state, where these majors are offered. It's not cheap so I recommend going to the library or accessing through a HS guidance office.
