Should I continue doing extracurriculars/sports I don't love anymore since they will make my college application look better?

I'm a junior, and I'm not as interested in some of my extracurriculars as I used to be. I feel like I'm only doing them because I don't want to quit when I'll be applying to college next year, but they're also making it harder to find time for the things I enjoy. My parents cautioned me against...

Hello! I hope everyone reading this is doing well. I am currently a sophomore at the University of Connecticut studying Biomedical Engineering. I am planning my future schedules and want advice in choosing a concentration and minor. My school requires BME majors to select a concentration. I am torn between the two concentrations; Biomechanics & Mechanobiology (first conc.) and Systems, Imaging, & Instrumentation (second conc.). I am also looking into minoring in Electronics and Systems, and most of the courses required to complete this minor overlap with the Systems, Imaging, & Instrumentation concentration. Electronics and systems has been something that I have been interested in for a while, so this pair is calling out to me the most as of late. This past summer, I participated in a practicum where I explored both bio-signals and biomechanics. During this practicum, I was able to build a 3D printed robotic hand while investigating various methods of body-machine interfacing for prosthetic control. Most of the work I focused on was working with flex sensors (which we made) and making things like an instrumentation amplifier, an active band pass, and full rectifier, which were used to make an electromyograph. This experience reignited my passions and curiosity for both biomechanics and bio-signals. This is why I am torn between both concentrations, and which to pair with minor I’m interested in. So, the options I have made for myself are; Biomechanics & Mechanobiology concentration paired with Electronics & Systems major OR Systems, Imaging, & Instrumentation paired with the Electronics & Systems major. I am also wondering on which pair would be the most beneficial for me in industry post-graduation. Any advice helps. Thank you in advance!

Any Advice?

I love writing and am interested in pursuing it, but I'm unsure what my future would look like if I took writing seriously, and I don't want to make the wrong choice.

I love writing personal essays and stories, but what kind of career can I make out of that? I also love to cook / bake, but its always been a hobby. Now I'm not sure if I should think about taking it more seriously. I don't want to waste time by making the wrong decision about what I want to do.

How bad is the job market for data scientists and software engineers at an entry level position? Will it get worse with AI?

I am a high school student wondering about what career would be open for me. I like programming and computer science but I've heard that the job market is bad because so many people are interested in that kind of career and AI is taking jobs.
