Hurdles Faced Going To College: Lissette Hernandez

One of the main hurdles I faced in High School going into college had to be deciding on a major and narrowing down from many fields of interest to two or three. At first, I couldn't think of anything I was interested in at all, and after a while I had too many choices to choose from. 

It was challenging because I thought that what I decide to do is what I'm going to have to stick with for the rest of my life, but after looking further into the process I realized I'll have options either way.

Another one of my hurdles were deciding if I wanted to go away or stay at home. My final decision to go away for college took me a while to finalize because I wasn't sure if I was ready to be 100% on my own. I remember having to sit down with my dad and my adviser to come to a decision. 

Overall, my troubles were basic topics which are important and involve a lot of thinking, they weren't things in which I could decide in a matter of 5 minutes, it's a process but in the end I am satisfied with them 100%
