Supposedly, this is what freshman year is supposed to be about, but I'm unconvinced that's what actually happens. I spent three years at a community college (and, in the process, more or less burned up English and Math by taking every offered course) before I really got what it is I wanted. And now, a year and a half into my Bachelor's degree, I've realized I want to focus it more, in a direction that no one else appears to have considered.
Excellent observation.
