In my senior year of high school I was in the same boat as both the OP and the 1st reply...

I ended up going to an almost entirely engineering school thinking that EE or ME was what I wanted to do. Turns out... it wasn't... Now I am a 2nd year Anthropology major at said engineering school. Even though I was involved in almost all aspects of my robotics team, like the two of you, turns out it wasn't the engineering or the robots that I was interested in; it was the interactions of all the different people.

My advice figure out why you like doing whatever you like the most... There are so many different elements to a FIRST team; just limiting your gaze towards the technical side of things is an injustice towards the diverse culture we live in.

Also don't pick something just because you are good at it. You have to remember that you must love what you pick, or doing in everyday will spoil that activity for you and drive you insane... Like engineering for me.

You also don't have to decide right now. Many schools don't require you to declare a major until your second or third year. I would advise taking classes in many areas your first year. This will enable you to make a more informed decision of where your interests lie. Also taking a wide range of classes wont hurt you in the long run, most degrees require you to take courses in many other areas to give you the experience of approaching a problem from another angle. Plus it helps to get them out of the way early, so you don't end up taking a class in an area that you find extremely difficult while working on a senior project.

Bottom line is figure out what you love the most and why you love it, then don't let anyone stop you from doing it. No one can tell you what you should do to be happy and successful other than yourself, as we all measure both things quite differently.

My two cents... and a shot at a semi-non-but-kinda-still-STEM-approach
