Service Hours

High school student here and I realized that service hours are pretty important to get in to a good college. So I have been looking for ways to get service hours. But since I'm usually in a place where it's about an hour away from the nearest urban city, I figured I needed or at least, prefer...

Should I major in Biology, Chemistry, or double major in both?

I want to be a veterinarian. I understand what I major in doesn't matter, as long as I meet the pre-requisites required for veterinary school. However, I would like to know which is recommended or what some current/retired veterinarians majored in. #college #veterinarian #veterinary-medicine

I am a rising college freshman in International Policy; however, I believe that every job requires some sort of technical skills, so I was curious whether it is wise to take a computer science minor or just take a few classes to gain those skills?

I am very concerned about future job opportunities. I am attending Georgetown university in the fall, and I want to maximize my skills for the future job market. #computer-science #government #job-market #international-affairs #technical #foreign-policy

If I am planning on majoring in something like Psychology or Pre-Med, would it be strange/frowned upon to minor in a language or possibly have a double minor including a language and some other science?

In order to get into medical school easier in the far future, is majoring in something other than Pre-Med like Psychology (or majoring in a specific psychology) going to allow for a bigger chance to get into the medical school of my choice?

I love helping others in any way, shape, or form, and the medical field will allow for me to continue this on a larger spectrum. I am continuing to volunteer at Emory St. Joseph's Hospital over the summer, and I am gaining amazing experiences from this opportunity, as well as learning about...
