Could a degree in business, as well as history, help me find a career in Museum work?
I am a high school senior about to go to University. I am going to major in history with the goal of pursuing museum work or teaching. As much as I love history/humanities, they are not usually easy fields to break into or very high paying. Therefore, I'm would like to major in Business Admin. as well. Business is not what I'm passionate about, but it is something reliable I can fall back on if I can't find a job in the field I want. My question is mostly aimed to those in museum work, particularly those who are in charge of hiring: In your opinion, would a degree in both business and history stand out in a potential employee? And could the skills learned in a business degree apply to museum work in a way that would encourage potential employers to hire me? Thanks!

What should a person starting with community college do to become an optometrist ?
I am a just graduated high school student, and I want to become an optometrist. I personally don't have great vision and use glasses everyday of my life, which has caused me to get interested in the study of the eyes and to then want to go to school for optometry. After high school, I am going to a community college. What classes should I take there to get my basics done and also have my pre requisites for university after community college? What would be a good major to major in community college and university? Which pre reqs should I have completed before optometry school? Is med school required to pursue this career? I also would like to know what major would be good for undergrad? Is a doctorate required to become an optometrist? And what would look good for optometry school? I havent started community college yet, and have a long way ahead of me to optometry school, but I am confused on how to start the path for it as someone who is going to a community college first. I plan on furthering my education after community college, I just don't know what would be the best classes and majors to choose to then continue into optometry school. Any tips or extra advice would be highly appreciated. :)
As a high school student, how can I determine if a career in photography is right for me?
In order to look into photography as a career instead of a hobby I will need to enroll in photography classes to learn more about lighting, composition, technique's and many more elements to capture a beautiful image. I can perhaps look for photography clubs around me to get more familiar with taking professional photos. One last thing I can do to gain more knowledge is watch YouTube tutorials that'll be helpful for editing the images/ to take them as well.

What careers could I be headed towards?
Hey! My name is Abbey and I’m a first-year student at the University of St.Thomas in St.Paul Minnesota. Throughout my whole life, I've had an interest in sports, health, and the human body. Because of this, I decided to major in Exercise Science and double minor in Nutrition and Business Administration. I was looking at becoming an athletic trainer but decided against it a few months ago. I am really just looking for someone who has some knowledge in these areas, and could tell me a little bit of what I could go into when I'm older that includes my major and minors! And any other insights that I could find helpful in the future!

Should I give up my passion?
I have two passions only. Making Art and making Music. I am a graphic design student who is doing pretty well in college and juggling my Art and Music passions. I am pretty good at both of my passions. Lately someone told me that I should focus only on one passion. There are some youtube videos and articles that supports my situation and says that it's great thing two have two passions or even more and there are some youtube videos and articles that says that you should have only one passion and put all your focus on it. There is a kinda famous artist/musician called Jack Stauber who i stumbled upon lately who is juggling the same two passions of mine in addition to animation, sculpture, stop motion, many different musical instruments, singing, songwriting, and many more. he majored in Marketing . And there is also Caroline konstnar who is ballet dancer, artist, singer, comedian, actor, content creator. My question is should I give up on one of my passions and focus only on one, which is something that I don't wanna do. Or be like these two musician/artist examples and embrace my two passions through content creation by making music and making art for my music or making music and making animation for my music just like they do. Thank You

How do I start getting vet tech experience when they often require prior experience to hire you?
I have been struggling to discover an internship or a facility that will hire me as most of the vet tech assistant jobs often require prior experience. How am I supposed to get the 'prior experience' necessary to be accepted in these jobs if I've never had one? I am very fortunate to have pretty basic medical handling skills and abilities, such as proper restraint, muzzling, intramuscular injection, medicating orally, taking and interpreting vital science, and taking and reading fecal samples. I have also assisted in the birth of livestock, monitored pregnancy in a mare, and have worked as an animal shelter technician for more than a year.
