Recently I've been running back and forth between forensic anthropology and forensic science. I understand the two are similar but I think that's why I'm having an issue deciding in the first place!

How can I find my passion?

I am 17, and unsure of everything. I have no idea who I want to be, or what to do as a career. I need some advice, I know I need to go to college not only to better myself and my knowledge just so I can be a well-rounded individual as well as also to give myself more opportunities in different jobs and careers, however, I am completely lost as to what major I would want to pursue. Can anyone relate to my issue, and if so what is a way I can overcome this hurdle and find a job/career/major I would enjoy?

How do you choose a college minor?

I know that I'm interested in something STEM, probably mathematics, but I'm not sure what career I'd go into after. I have no interest in teaching, so definitely don't want to become a professor or teacher. So I'm wondering what minor would work well with mathematics to have more opportunities after college.

What colleges offer Criminology/Forensic Psychology?

Hi! I'm currently in my first year of college, majoring in BA Psychology. I'm genuinely passionate about my course, but more so on Forensic/Criminal Psychology. However my college doesn't offer this specific class, only BA Psychology as a general course. So for my graduate studies, I want to focus more on Forensic Psychology. I want to ask on what colleges offer Criminology/Forensic Psychology courses in the U.S? since I'm planning on getting a professional license there in the future. #psychology #college #criminal-justice #college-major #forensic-psychology
