I am playing college softball while also taking nursing classes and I am worried that I will get stressed and have to much stuff to do.

There are so many options for what to do, and it is hard to tell what I will really enjoy doing.

Alright, I'm back as a senior now! Getting into the detail for college, I decided I'm going into pharmaceutical science (if they have) or biochemistry. Some schools offer PharmD (Doctor of Pharmacy), so I am planning on doing that but there's two paths. One is the direct entry, where I go...

What should be avoided in the long run, and watch out for in the short term? I have student loans but want to be financially stable within the next couple years after grad school.
