How many jobs are there for people who want to work in the environmental field?

I'm wanting to become someone that helps the environment when I grow up. It's my preferred field of study and I'm currently taking AP Environmental Science at school and I really want to get involved in it when I go to college.

How do you know if you have found yor dreamed career?

I love science but I also love writing short stories and sometimes I wonder if I will ever regret not choosing English as my major. I love biology and everything that involves it but how do you know if you are making the correct decision?

How can you discover which study method works for you?

I have realized that I don't know how to study, I could be reviewing vocabulary and the next day I'll forget it. I have tried many methods but I don't think they are helping.

What are the best methods for effective studying?

I sometimes find it difficult to figure out the best way to study for exams and tests. I feel that no matter how much time I give myself or how early I start studying, I still don't feel as confident as I would like to.

Can you be both a copy editor and a content editor?

Rather than being one or the other, I'm wondering if you can be both. I'm aware that each type of editor has a different skill set; however, I love the idea of doing both types of editing and I wouldn't want to limit myself to one type. Plus, wouldn't the flexibility of being able to do either...

How do you find scholarships?

Some websites do offer "scholarship matches," but they skip some that you do qualify for, and it's difficult to sort through hundreds just to find one or two you qualify for.
