How can I decide what I specifically want from my major?

For example, my major is going to be biology, but I can't decide whether I want my focus to be genetics, ecology, or environmental sciences. What are any tips to decide which would be best fitted for me? #college-major

Most of my courses will be STEM related... aside from a writing course, where would I go for a good public speaking course? #financial-engineering #computational-mathematics. My career goal is to work as a quantitative analyst. #math #finance

How can I get myself on track with writing and publishing a book?

I've always wanted to be a published author. I've been writing since I was little, and now I need to get serious. How do I get organized? I don't even know where to begin. I'm beginning my final year of undergrad and have plans to go to graduate school. #college #student #author...

Should I trust in myself to be able to pay off student loans in the future with an exemplary university, or should I attend an average university on a full-ride?

A family member of mine has gone to an outstanding university ending with a great sum of debt. They also had offers from less quality universities for no debt.

In present day 2018, which is the most important factor in determining universities to attend: cost, environment, quality of education, or distance from home?

All of these factors are very important to me, yet I do not know which will outweigh the rest in the future.

What is the best way to manage time and stray from procrastination?

I am asking this question because I am one who has poor time management. I also suffer from laziness and procrastination, thus causing me to perform mediocrely rather than brilliantly. This also makes me afraid of college due to the responsibility of self-discipline and time management. #stressed
