In college regardless of major how quickly did you get employed?

Usually the purpose of going to college is to get educated in order to qualify for some sort of job/interest you have. However how long did it take to get employed in your field? #job #job-search #career #college

How do you know medical school is “for you?”

Being young it is easy to say you want to be a doctor, but with little to no exposure it’s hard to know if you’re cut for it. How does one know that they should attend medical school if they are unsure before they get into college?
