4 Steps to Choosing a Degree

The proccing of choosing what to learn is a journey.

You may have no direction at all (Then go to Step one – how to start), and you might be very close to making a decision but considering two close options (go to step 4 – how to choose between 2 options) 

About the parts

Part One – Having No Idea

In this part – how to start looking for a degree, we will write your passions and your “boring zone,” your strength and weakness. 

We will also learn about the most important thing when choosing a degree (the jobs after) and how to plan ahead for that.

Part Two – Research and Mapping

In part 2, researching degree, you will research and organize relevant options for your skills and desires. 

This part’s goal is to organize your option map. I am going to share with you a career list. Your goal is to pick all the relevant ones.

Part Three – Basic Elimination 

In this part 3 – eliminate options. You will remove all the deal breaker options. (for example, if you don’t want to work with the computer in the office, software engineering may not be your cup of tea.

You will also remove all of the “least good” ones, which may be nice, but there is another better alternative.

Part 4 Choosing the Winning One

In part 4, choosing between 2 good options, you will write everything you know about the “real” degree options. Salary, job opportunity, workspace, development option, etc. 

So start step one here ->

The process is easy to follow, and I invite you to do it more than once. 

You can use the same method for every critical decision in your life. In part 4, for example, you will learn how to choose between 2-3 valid options with a tradeoff (a hard decision).
