I found a website that said this:
"Now, there is a possibility in the future that professions will not be chosen at character creation, since ArenaNet has put great emphasis on testing a few professions before making a binding choice. We are also almost certain that when the game goes live that a secondary profession will not be able to chosen until the character levels up to a certain point."
I haven't had a chance to play any of the BWE and I was wondering if the part about not chosing a seconday profession untill a few level ups is true and if that is a problem or not.

I do belive they did change it to where you will have to choose your second profession down the line, and if you dont like it, you can dissmiss your second profession, keep your base profession stats, and start your second profession over whenever you want.

with the implementation of the kingdom of ascalon, there are quests available where you can try each of the secondary professions and choose which you prefer. gaile has also mentioned recently that you will be able to change your secondary profession later on.

Last BWE you could choose your secondary profession by completing a quest given by a trainer of that profession. If you wanted to be a Mesmer seconday then you would talk to the secondary mesmer trainer which gave you a quest and when you fnished the quest the trainer would ask you if you were sure if you wanted to keep that profession as your secondary.

Note: I did not post the name or quest to avoid spolers.

Edit: Too slow.
