I transferred to my current school and I am almost finished with my classes. Great! Yay ...except I don't really have a relationship with the professors since i have only taken one class with them. How do I get recommendation letters from professors?

I am a senior graduating in Spring and i need recommendation letters from professors for application to med school and/or scholarships. Don't really know how to go about it when my classes are 400+ size. #senior #pre-med #college

Changing Majors

Entering college as a young adult and with lots of aspirations of what to come ahead, we always come across the option to change their major. What is the difference between a business degree vs. a communications degree in a career perspective?
