What subjects did you do at the point before you only do one subject (university) so like A Levels in the UK or high school majors in the US I think? For me my A Levels were Maths, Physics and Geography. What a mistake!

just to let you know, our curriculum is different from your western curriculum style. We have 3 divisions on high school; science, social studies, and language.

Science comprises physics, advanced maths biology, and chemistry;

social studies has geography, advanced history, economy, and sociology.

Language lessons currently comprises advanced english, french, german, and advance indonesian; although in some other schools they provide japanese and mandarin instead of french and german.

Other than that, there are the general lessons such as religion, basic maths, basic history, basic indonesian, basic english, civic education, P.E, basic entrepreneurship, arts and cultures (basically music, art, drama, etc combined), and two cross-interest lessons from the 2 other divisions (thats why I also voted biology and chemistry).

High schools don't usually have majors in the US. Our education is fairly general up until the second year of college (uni for you) or so. We do have elective courses in high school that we can choose and some schools encourage you to use those to focus in on 1-2 areas. My high school did that and considered my focuses to be Science and Spanish.

 
In my part of the world (America, but this is also how it is in other places), we don't get a broad liberal arts education until after graduating from 12 year schools and starting 4-year college/university degrees. In this part of the world, about one-half of classes in  are related to what is called a "major," the other half are devoted to a range of other subjects, such as the ones listed above.
