But the US already has such a limited offer as far as classes are concerned, limited in the amount of classes you take I mean (on high school level). You have what...7 classes in HS? Whereas in Europe, most countries provide 12 or more classes in HS giving students a good basic education. The danger of having to declare a major in HS is that there are always going to be students that don't have a clue what they wish to study until graduation or such. The good thing is that you can have an advantage for higher education. Over here, we have "project" classes where you can pick your class and have it for one semester. Like last semester, I took Spanish, this semester I'm taking philosophy. This allows students to pick classes that are close to their interests but a major...hmmm it may be a bit too far already.
