Lately I've been reading a lot of "it doesn't really matter where you went to college after you get your first job" kind of things and "the cheapest school is the best option" answers from around the internet. Granted, these aren't necessarily from reputable sources and everyone's experiences...

I'm going into college and I know that I want to major in biology, but I'm not too sure beyond that. I want to be able to try out different things through internships and maybe part time jobs in school and during grad school after that, but I don't think that even in five or six years from now...

I'd like to direct this question mainly to those in the medical field because that is what I'm looking to go into, but any insights are greatly appreciated! Even as a high school student I've had to put some of hobbies and interests on the back burner because of all of the school work and...

I'm not really sure how honor societies work in college to begin with, but I recently received an email about being accepted to one. I looked into it, found it to be real, and logged into the website. After this, though, I found that I would have to pay ($100/year) to be a member and be able to...

I am happily starting my first internship this summer, which is the first summer after my completed freshman year of college. I am just wondering how often should I be looking out for scholarships, where I can use my networking skills to help benefit my future as a person working in the health...

As a nursing major, how will I be able to keep up with my studies and be a successful member of a college? #nursing #time #management

I have always struggled in the math department whenever I was in school. Now as a senior and knowing that I want to pursue medicine, I feel scared to face the math requirements medical school has for prospective students. Should I give up on my dreams, suck it up and magically become better at...

I am currently a senior in high school and I am interested in studying STEM in college. I realize that women in the STEM field are far and few between, so what can I do as an individual to help more girls explore STEM fields in school?

I have always loved books and stories, and writing is one of the biggest things that I want to "do" in my life. However, I know that it is not practical to assume that as soon as I graduate college, I will publish a best-selling novel and be set for life. I am definitely prepared to get a...

I love writing, and I enjoy helping others make their writing better as well, so when I heard a talk on freelance editing, I thought "This sounds like something I could do!" However, although I feel confident that I could do the actual editing part, I don't know much about how I would get...

Publishing is one of the most important aspects of being an author, and it can be very hard to get your foot in the door. What tips are there for doing so?

I want to be an author, but I often find it hard to continue when I'm stuck in a certain part of my story, so I'm wondering what techniques other authors have for combating this issue.

I'm a junior in high school. I have a pretty decent GPA and I have all A's. I've done a tone of program like internships abroad at hospitals and labs and I'm currently doing a leadership program with Princeton and a mentor-ship program with a pharmaceutical company called Novartis. I'm in 5...

I want to be a Forensics DNA Analyst but I would like to know if there is a need for this type of occupation. #forensics #biologist

I think I want to pursue this career but I need to know what kind of degree I would need to obtain. #scientist #forensics #biologist

With a forensic science major, I intend to work with trace evidence, but I can't determine which job would allow me to do so. I know of Forensic Anthropologists, Blood Splatter Technicians, Entomologists, etc. but I don't know which of these (and the rest) I would need to work as to be able to...

I intend to major in forensic science (biology, not chemistry), but even after quite a lot of research, I'm finding it quite difficult figuring out what exactly one does if they have biology as the concentration (for the major). I prefer biology over chemistry, so I'm just wondering if a major...

Being a teacher is something that is really important to me. I want to be able to help my future students to be the best that they can be. I want to be an elementary school teacher, preferably kindergarten. Is there a minor that would help a lot in the field of education? I was thinking about...

I have wanted to be an elementary teacher my whole life (almost), so when it comes to getting a job I want to make sure I have really good experiences to make me an even better teacher. Are there experiences or classes that you wished you would have taken that would have helped you understand...

I was told by someone that if you get a doctorates straight off the back, not many places will accept you, but if you go for your bachelors or you masters, then you'll most likely get a job faster. #pharmacy #pharmaceuticals #medicinal-chemistry #drug-development

Hi, I'm a sophomore in high school, and I was wondering if any premed/ medical students/ physicians have any advice for a student in high school, that wants to become a doctor, that may help in my medical future. #medicine #career-path #doctorate-degree #motivation
