Has being a teacher ever forced you to go against your own personal values or beliefs #Fall25?

I am currently in college to become a highschool chemistry teacher and worry that certain political events will still impact me even in a STEM field that lacks "subjectivity" so to speak, as a queer female teacher.

How do you fight imposter syndrome as a new grad?

How do you confront "imposter syndrome"? I graduate in 5 weeks and though I'm fairly confident in my work ethic and my understanding of MBC I cannot shake this feeling that I will not fit in or will not succeed. I somehow feel unprepared. Is this normal? Am I reading too much into graduation...

What are some good study habits or tips that'll help me in the transition from undergrad to graduate school?

I am currently a freshman in college, majoring in psychology. I'm going to grad school to specialize in either forensics or developmental psych. Even though I'm only a freshman, I'm so excited to get a start in my life and my career.

How can I shape a medical career that not only treats illness but also dismantles the systemic barriers that create it? #Spring25

This question reflects my desire to pursue medicine as both a healer and an advocate—someone who not only addresses individual patient needs but also works to reform the broader social and structural determinants of health that perpetuate inequity.

Is becoming a data analyst worth it?

My major is Data Analytics and I have about one more year before I graduate. I don't love data but I heard this is a good career. It seems every business could use a data analyst.

My school offers college credit courses like Math 110 and Math 111 (general and stats) but also offers non-ap classes like pre-calc and calc. Which math classes should I take if I am pursuing a psychology under-grad (psychiatry end goal)?

I am in the 10th grade and have taken geometry and algebra II/trigonometry already. Next year I will have the option to take college credit courses.
