When searching for scholarships, what are some keywords or websites to look up and use to find niche scholarships or scholarships that have a low participation rate (for a higher chance of winning) ?

For reference, I am a high school senior looking for scholarships. I want to major in biology or pre-med, and I want to become an optometrist in the future. So far, I've only found one specific scholarship, which was the ACF scholarship. Usually, when I search, the scholarships have expired, or I'm not eligible.

What part about being a biochemist is most fulfilling, and why do you say that?

I am a high school senior. I have earned a cumulative 4.0 unweighted GPA and a 4.38 weighted GPA, and have worked very hard in school to achieve straight A's throughout the entirety of my high school career. I am interested in the natural sciences: biology, chemistry, physics, etc.. I would like to learn about different specializations in the aforementioned science fields, when specializing became important in school, and how you were able to pick a specialization (because there are just so many). I need to know how much should be apparent now about college, what I should prepare myself for, and what I will find out later on.

What college majors will allow me to keep my options open towards jobs in healthcare?

I am currently a senior in high school; I am completely set that I want to have a job in healthcare in the future. I have been interested in dentistry for a while, specifically dental hygiene, though I also want to make more options available for myself in the field because my mind can always change in the long run and end up not wanting to go to the dental route. Which majors or programs would allow me to explore different paths before I really commit to one? What colleges would you recommend in Southern California? I also want to ask if I could be able to do the cc transferring to university route in my situation as well?
