I need to know as much as I can so I can know what it would be like designing houses. I also ONLY want to design houses.

I also would like to major in designer, I want to know about any programs or anything that you recommend before I graduate high school. I am also a 12th Grader.

I am seventeen years old and I am an 12th grader and I want to know the best way to start a small business, so I can start as soon as possible.

I have little to no idea what I need to learn about if I want to be a paleontologist.

Is being a psychiatrist mentally draining and exhausting? You're with people everyday at probably their lowest points of their lives, but you get to help them grow and get better. One one hand it is extremely rewarding, but I feel like it may get overwhelming a lot of the time. Is this true,...

I've been thinking about paleontology lately and am considering if I should try and focus on that for college.

I am a senior in high school right now, but I feel extremely drawn to the field of psychology and mental health treatment. How do I know I have what it takes to be a psychiatrist? What types of characteristics do psychiatrists need to have to be successful?

I am split between a career involved with computer science/IT and a career involved with graphic design. I want to be able to make a 6 figure salary, as I live in an area with a high cost of living, but I also want a career i'll enjoy. I like the idea of either career path/majors but i'm...

I have no idea what I'm doing and am in dire need of help. I don't feel strongly about any career choice that is financially viable, so I'm clueless.

I am really interested in the field of mental health and psychology. I know psychiatrists can prescribe medication while psychologists can't, but is there any other major difference between the two careers? Is it worth the 4 years of medical school just to be able to prescribe drugs, or is...

I want to apply for a school-year internship at a medical facility (or healthcare adjacent program) and I am having a hard time finding opportunities for THIS school year.

Does anyone have any recommendations? Thank you!

For context, this isn't urgent because it hasn't happened yet. I just want to know what to do when I choose one college over another when both have already accepted me. Do I send the loser a rejection letter? Do I just not show up in the fall?

I'm an overachieving high school senior. I've contacted representatives and senators using the official template multiple times, but received no reply. I understand they are busy people and that they receive thousands of these letters, but I'd really like to get accepted. Advice?

Ex: Go from civil engineering to acting.

I'm pivoting from consulting to product management and would value current product teams' perspective on this question!

IT is heavily impacted by AI, the job market, and changing technology trends.

One problem I feel like I can get stuck in is that, I feel like I might be too hyper focused on one major or I feel like because I am majoring in two majors I might get overwhelmed.
