Understanding That Interests Can Change
Students sometimes feel pressure to define themselves too early.
But interests evolve.
People change as they gain confidence, experience, skills, exposure, and different opportunities.
Something that mattered deeply a year ago may matter less now - and something unexpected may become important.
That's totally normal.
