Is biology the right choice?
I am currently in community college to complete my prerequisites for a biology major. I want to transfer to UC Davis or Cal Poly Pomona because I want to become a veterinary technician and then later on advance into a veterinarian. However, I am finding chemistry to be a really difficult prerequisite to get over. I know that it'll get harder as I go on, but I'm already finding myself with no motivation and I just want to know, is biology the proper field for me if I want to be a veterinary technician? Will it be more helpful once I go back to school to complete my education to become a veterinarian? #biology #veterinarian #veterinary #animal-health #college-transfer #veterinary-technician

Should I pursue the Marketing and Information Systems degree?
I've reached the point in my academic career wherein I must make a choice. I'm applying for transfer, and I have to choose my concentration for my major. I am very apprehensive and scared in making the choice. I am a business major and am presently taking some more business-oriented courses: Macroeconomics, Financial Accounting, Business Writing, etc. I've noticed through my time in college that my interests tend to fall into things that require me to be creative: Writing, music, speech, and so forth. These areas are also my stronger skills. I am less moved by numbers, though I am capable of making the calculations once I've been taught. I've maintained a 4.0 GPA the past three semesters, and am on the path to graduating with a transferable Associate degree in Business Administration and an Associate Degree in Communications. I'm looking at Cal State Fullerton; they have a program there that I find may be very lucrative and suitable for someone such as myself: Marketing and Information Systems. However, I am aware that pursuing Marketing may not be a safe and stable choice. If I major in Finance I'll be able to find my way into the Marketing Field than the other way around. During my academic pursuits, though, I want to enjoy what I am learning to enhance my engagement and efforts. I'm afraid if I go into Finances, the duration of studies will be full of material I don't find as engaging, which may in turn take a toll on my drive and passion. I know I can change concentrations at University, but I've been informed that it is really hard to do. I don't want to waste time, but I also don't want choose something I find more creative and interesting over a stable future. Some additional questions would be, is Marketing a stable career choice? Is it fruitful even for those who don't wound up working for incredibly successful businesses? Is it a feasible goal or are successes in the field rare? #college #business #marketing #career-choice #college-transfer #specialization

Will transferring during undergrad ruin my chances of getting into med school?
Currently I am at a public university and I'm not doing very well, mainly because the class sizes are so big and I feel like I'm bothering the professor if I go to office hours with questions. So, I'm transferring to a private school because I think I'll be a better student. Is this going to be a problem trying to get into medical school or will they not care and just see that my grades went up? #college #medicine #healthcare #pre-med #medical-school #medical-education #college-transfer

What is the best way to ensure the right credits get transferred to a 4-year college?
I will be attending John Tyler Community College this fall, and I am planning to transfer (sooner rather than later) to VCU after I finish my prerequisites. I will be majoring in general science with the intended career path of pre-medicine; therefore, I will have a wider variety of job options. However, with many in's and out's of pre-med majors, or in my case a science major, it is known that credits can get lost in the mix. I would like to avoid having to take unnecessary classes while at John Tyler and take as many valid credits as possible. How can I be sure that my transfer between colleges will contain the correct pre-med credits? #college-advice #college-transfer #college-advising #college-advisement
