Thank you comment icon It's depends on your interests and future goals. If you're into hands-on work, Biology or Chemistry could be a great fit. For problem-solving and logical thinking, try Physics. Consider your future career—Biology or Environmental Science is great for health or environmental fields, while Physics and Chemistry align well with engineering or tech. Also, check any college requirements for your potential major. Choose something that excites you and aligns with your future plans! Rizwan

Luna’s Answer

Consider taking Chemistry or Physics. Chemistry, combined with Biology, looks great to colleges because it helps you understand molecules and how they work. Physics is also valuable because it teaches you about the workings of the universe.

Andrew’s Answer

If you plan to major in STEM in college, consider taking as many math courses as possible in high school. It should be appreciated that mathematics is the language of science. It will serve you well regardless of the science discipline you decide to major in.

Other than that, a course in physics will be helpful too. Physics is the foundation of all physical science. Or, if you are interested in biological science, taking a biology course would be beneficial too.

Laura’s Answer

I have a degree in Physics and Math. I recommend choosing the science subject that interests you the most. When you're curious about a topic, you're more likely to get involved and enjoy learning. In high school, I chose Physics because I found it both interesting and challenging, which led me to major in it in college. Picking a subject you like might guide you toward a related major later on.

Rebecca’s Answer

Thank you for your question. I am glad to know you have interest in Science.
Below are my suggestions :
1. Firstly, you need to find out what careers you have interest. There are many careers related to science, e.g. Engineering, Pharmacist, Doctor, Vet, Nurse, Zoologist, Park Ranger, Computer Developers, Cybersecurity, etc. You can find out more science related online.
2. Find out more on these careers and determine what you have interest
3. Speak to someone who are working in these careers. Seek guidance from your mentor, school career counsellor, your parents, etc.
4. Shortlist 1-2 careers you would like to pursue
5. Explore the entry criteria of relevant subjects in colleges
Hope this helps! Good Luck!
May Almighty God bless you!

Seleene’s Answer

Hi Nicholas! I was unsure about my college major until junior year in college. I considered computer science or another STEM field but ended up choosing accounting. Looking back, I think more experience in physics would have been beneficial. Hope this helps!

Hazel’s Answer

Hi Nicholas!
I'd recommend choosing either an advanced science that you had taken before (like AP Chem or Bio) which could help your applications for college OR a more unique science that really interests you (I took Human Anatomy senior year of HS) because this can also set you apart from other applicants and also help you figure out what you want to do in the future. There aren't really any wrong answers to this one so I'd say go with your gut!

Good luck!

Margaret’s Answer

Biology, Chemistry, and Physics are good courses to take in high school. If any of these interests you specifically, consider taking AP or college preparatory versions of these in your Senior year.
