Is it true that a person's major/degree doesn't necessarily set one up for a career in that field?

If I'm majoring in Mechanical Engineering, for example, but over time find a new branch of engineering that is more appealing, would having that degree be a waste? #mechanical-engineering

How do I get an internship with a career where confidentiality is key?

I want to see what its like in the daily life of a Medical Social Worker, but I understand that the privacy is important from patient to professional, and personally, I would not want to put my business out there to someone who is barely learning the ropes.

Will my dream career (Medical Social Worker) be enough to get me by financially?

Im not doing it for the money, I genuinely want to help others because I car, but will it be enough to get me, and my future family, by? I dont want to live pay check to pay check, but at the same time, i'm not trying to live a fancy, luxurious life.

Are there any medical fields that specialize in nutrition and athletics that is not Kinesioligy, and what are the things I should be doing to further place myself in that direction?

I really like athletics and nutrition, but do not want to go into kinesiology, I still want to attend medical school and become a doctor, but was just wondering if there were any specific career paths that would be best for those interests. #doctor

Is there a fair advantage of people that go to lower income schools than others that go to better schools? and also does going to a private high school give you a greater chance to bing better at school than others that go to a public school?

I live in San Leandro in the bay area and my school campus is so old compared to others schools. Other schools have such great campus and a better environment. Also I have great goals I want to achieve and I want to know what is best for me.
