Is Ivy league everything?

Is attending an Ivy league school going to really help me get better jobs? Is it worth it when compared to a high ranked non-Ivy league university? #college #university #admissions #ivy #league

What would be a good minor to go with a biology major?

Should I minor in a field that is different from biology? Or would it be beneficial to minor in a related field? #college #science #biology #major #minor

How vital is it to get to know my professors who are outside my area of interest?

I am a freshman who wants to study biology, but I also take classes that are not in the field of science (history and english). Should I try to make connections with those professors that are not within my major? #college #professors #connections

As a pediatrician, how do personal feelings come up into work?

Do you associate feelings when it comes to work? Does a patient remind you of someone you know and that affects you relationship wise? Does the environment affect how you feel? #doctor #nurse #pediatrician #healthcare #pediatrics
