whats the hardest to do?
what is most in demand?
which one would u pick?
 
Those options are so far off from each other. I think you have to choose yourself first. Then maybe ask around to narrow down what part of the field you want to get involved in.
 
You should do what you like considering what you choose you're going to be doing for a good portion of your life.
 
You would like to pursue each one equally? Nursing seems like it is most in demand, all things considered.

i choose those 3 b/c i wouldn't mind doing any of them for a long time
 
You will always have a job with nursing. But I suggest the most popular major for high school guidance counselors: Underwater basket-weaving. Sure, it's a niche market, but the women are great 😉

True; but I'm speaking in terms of the lay-off factor 😉

EDIT: Also, you can get a nursing job anywhere. Not every po-dunk town in the Union, or elswhere will have employment for a computer engineer.
 
Nursing seems awfully limited... besides being a nurse, what else can you be? Computer engineering is a really vast field and you can do everything from hardware design, to software development to management.

So I'd say choose either architecture or comp eng, depending on what you like more. And be aware that there's a very good chance engineering will suck the life out of you.
 
Nursing is easily the most in demand job of the choices you gave. Hell, it's probably one of the most in demand jobs i can think of overall. With an RN license you can have hospitals eating out of your palm. If you don't go as far as an RN, you can be a CNA (lowest) or an LVN (mid-level) and still have very high job security. Or you could lean towards the physical therapy market as well.
With an RN license, a 6-figure income is a very good possibility, and with enough experience, could be gaurunteed.

If you are really good at what you do, you could opt to be a Surgical RN, one of the most demanding and tough RN jobs I know. You would side by side with the surgeon during surgery, and if he's swamped, or if he trusts you, he could ask you to close up the patient.

Don't know much about architecture, except that you live life from one project to another, and you could easily go through periods of no work.

I would pick nursing, and not settle for anything short of being an RN.
 
Go undeclared, take some classes from each, and figure out what you like best.

Although, as a Computer Engineering major, I have to cast my vote for it 🙂
 
Nursing if you like helping sick people
Architecture if you like to draw buildings and such
CE if you're a dork 😛

CS major here
 
Go into pharmacy. 4 years, pretty much $30-50/hr right out the gate, work in almost any city you want, and with the aging population your employment is assured.
