Product Description
With so much at stake during college, students need smart and inspiring advice to help them excel. Now in its fifth edition, MAJOR IN SUCCESS reaches out to undecided freshmen and sophomores in search of a major that suits their interests and career ambitions; shows near-graduation students how to bolster their résumé and ace the interview to land their first real job; and presents innovative strategies for tackling the six biggest fears that hold students back.

5 out of 5 stars Focus on Success   July 23, 2008

Major in Success can be misleading if you buy by impulse. It WONT teach you how to study or how to have great grades. However, it will do more than that - it WILL teach you to be successful and get your dream career.

What if you don't know what your dream career is? Well, you are not alone! Before reading this book I didn't know either, but the first part of the book will guide you in learning all your interests and then mix them to discover the perfect job for you.

And if that wasn't enough, you will then learn how to actually get it: break your fears, enrich your life, and have fun in college, while building the curriculum and getting the connections that will get you there.

This book changed my life and totally inspired me. It also has some wonderful cartoons and inspiring stories about real people. And toward the end has a wonderful manual, The Rules of Being Human, that our soul certainly read before dropping on earth but which, according to the last term of the contract, it forgot.

A refreshing attitude toward college, wonderfully written and inspiring, Major in Success is more than a book about success in college; it is a book about success in LIFE - all aspects of it.

PS: In case you didn't get the message: *buy it*; it will change your life!

5 out of 5 stars impressed by Combs's values   January 14, 2009

(this review is of the 3rd edition)
I picked this book up at the career counselor office at Rutgers. I felt as though I was meant to find this book. At the core, Combs professes great values: do what you love, don't stop believing in yourself, be proactive, well roundedness is more important than amazing grades. Good ideas on how to make yourself look better in interviews such as finding articles and joining organizations (he mentions national organizations, but others can be just as great). For someone entering or still in college, this is a great book to read, especially for business oriented students, but still great for anyone else (I'm a math major with interest in psychology and outdoor camps/experiential learning).

Khionne Awer (USA)
This book is very well written and inspirational. It has put many of my college experiences in perspective, and I look forward to implementing many of Combs' strategies. I definitely recommend this title to any college student, or recent graduate.
