Myth #2- "Students should know exactly what they want to study before they apply to college."

Not always true! You may have to make a career decision earlier if you plan to attend a specialized college of music, engineering, etc. But most colleges and universities encourage you to take a broad range of subjects to help you decide on a field of study. So it's okay to go the college "undecided."
