Almost every college that we visited said that most kids who declare a major change that major when they get to college. They also say that there is nothing wrong with being undecided. Hard to know if declaring a major makes a difference.

For my college Freshman, she had two areas of interest (math and music) but went in as undecided. I wish she had declared at least one as an intended major - mainly because she might have gotten an adviser with a bit more knowledge of her interest areas.
