Hello, my question is specifically for somebody in the science field. I am currently pursuing a biology degree but I have a lot of interests. So my question is, how did you pick one thing to specialize in ?

I am currently a college freshman, and I cannot decide between a career in Marine Biology, Wildlife Conservation, Marine Conservation, Wildlife Biologist, or something else.

As a high school freshman with an interest in human anatomy, medicine, and helping people, how do I gain experience/knowledge to narrow down a career choice/college major ?

There are so many options in the medical field so how can I gain experience and/or get more detailed information before applying to college? Is there specific coursework beyond just science and math classes that would be beneficial to me?

How do you figure out what you want to do?

How does one figure out what they want to do if they have multiple interests/ talents that are not alike in anyway? For example: I love childcare. For most of time i don't care about the money but I also have a good head for math (I am looking into accounting or something of the sort) and I am artistic

How to decide what i'd like to do in terms of college and highschool?

I'm currently in between the four majors I'd like to do, which are architecture, physics, engineering, and astrology. I'm most fond of all and enjoy looking into all of them but I'm at a standstill at what Id like to pursue when I go into highschool. However, I can admit I'm a bit young to think about it, but I think it's beneficial to come into highschool with a particular mindset and a game plan. Also, some tips for highschool would be very appreciated.

Should I choose a minor that is easily utilized if my major is specific to a certain field?

I would like to major in conservation biology or wildlife biology, but it seems like a very difficult field to become employed in, and I was planning on minoring in psychology because I am interested in behavior and thought it would compliment a biology degree. However, would it be better to minor, or double major, in a more career-oriented field? Such as business, marketing, liberal arts, etc. They aren't especially interesting topics for me, but would they serve well as a backup plan? #conservation #wildlife-biology #business #marketing #liberal-arts #choosing-a-major #choosing-major ##choosing-a-minor #choosing-a-career #psychology #majors-and-minors #interests

Why does one consider becoming a psychologist/therapist?

For a long time now, I have wanted to be a psychologist because the human mind is extremely interesting but also because I feel like I could make a huge change in someone else's life. I have heard from many that I should consider an occupation that is more financially stable, which has caused a minor conflict of interest. So why do people do this, for money or fulfillment? Or maybe another third variable that I am yet to be made aware of? #psychology #clinical-psychology #choosing-a-career #therapy
