What would be a good plan for someone wanting to become an acoustic/noise control engineer?
I was planning on getting two degrees: one in math and the second in physics. Then I want to get a masters and doctorate in acoustics from Penn State. I then started researching the Institue of Noise Control Engineering. Would it be a good idea to apply for membership to INCE after graduate school? Should I do it earlier? Should I wait? Should I do it at all? Then I want to complete all three INCE courses in noise control engineering. Is board certification worth it?

How can I overcome my fear of math and build the necessary skills for nursing Are there resources or support systems available for students like me who struggle with math?
I've been contemplating a major in nursing, but I'm grappling with the fact that math has always been a struggle for me. Throughout school, I've often felt embarrassed about my difficulties with math, to the point where seeking help became daunting. Despite my best efforts, I haven't grasped math concepts since elementary school. Considering the math requirements for nursing, I can't shake the feeling that my weakness in math might hinder my ability to become a nurse. It's disheartening when others seem to understand what's going on in the classroom, and I feel left behind. I want to address this challenge head-on and not let it define my future. How can I overcome my fear of math and build the necessary skills for nursing? Are there resources or support systems available for students like me who struggle with math? Sharing my story feels vulnerable, but I want to ensure that I can pursue my passion for nursing despite this obstacle.

Is high school honors worth it?
I'm wondering if high school honors matter to empoylers. I already got accepted ED into Northeastern University, so I assume it won't matter to colleges if I didn't get one. I'm planning to drop a math class as I hate math and it just stresses me out. Will Northeastern rescind my application if I drop that math class? I failed the first term of that math class, so I retook it, but will they recind me if I don't finish the second term. Will graduating from high school matter to empoylers at all?
Which classes should I take to prepare myself for a Marketing Degree?
Hello! I'm a 15-year-old student in Belgium in 4th secondary, equivalent to 10th grade in the US. Next year in Belgium, we can customize our schedule. However, I've been having some trouble deciding. I want to pursue a marketing degree. The careers I'm most interested in are Marketing Manager, Advertising and Promotions Manager, and Market Analyst. We have multiple schedule combinations to choose from, and I would appreciate some advice on what to choose to best prepare for a marketing course in university and a job in that field. Whatever I choose, I will have 5h of French, 2h of History, 2h of Geography, 4h of English, 2h of Philosophy, and 2h of PE. The first option is called "Sciences", but I doubt that that would be good for me. It includes 6h of Math, 1h each of Lab and Computer Lab, and 2h each of Biology, Physics, and Chemistry. In the other two options, I will have no Lab and only one hour of each science. The second option is "languages", it includes 4h of German and 4h of Spanish. We can then choose to have either 2h or 4h of Math. If we choose 4h of math, we can then choose to add either 2h of Art or 2h of Psychology/Communication. However, if we choose 2h of Math, we add on an hour of Computer Lab and have the extra choice (along with the two aforementioned electives) of 3h of International Relations. The last choice is called "Mix", and it includes 4h of German and 4h of Math. This option has a lot of freedom around the extra electives. We can choose between: 2h of Art and 2h of Psyc/Communications 2h of Spanish and 2h of International Relations 3h of News and 2h of Psyc/Communications 3h of News and 2h of Art 3h of News and 3h of International Relations I think the most major decision in my opinion is 2h or 4h of Math. In marketing, is math an extreme part of it? Math is very important for it, but is it essential to do more math earlier in life to take that path? There are also differences in what is taught in 2h and 4h of Math. It hasn't been explicitly explained by my school, but the khan academy courses for the different options are rather specific. 2h of math includes three chapters: Statistics (Side note: advanced, we've been doing statistics already.), then Sequences (not sure if that's correctly translated), then Growth Models. Here's the link to the course. https://fr.khanacademy.org/math/be-5eme-secondaire2h2 4h of math includes Statistics, Sequences, Trigonometry (Also advanced), Limits, Function Combinations, Derivatives of Functions, Graphed Derivatives, and Application of derivatives. https://fr.khanacademy.org/math/be-5eme-secondaire4h2 I'm not gonna go crazy in depth about the year after, but in 2h we focus on Probability, and in 4h we focus on more functions and primitives. There is also of course the choice of electives. In my unprofessional opinion, I assume that Psyc/Communication would be the best elective, but is there a better one? Would it be good to take Spanish? Would it be better to take News? This is the link to the form including all the possibilities, it is in French, however. https://secondaire.eiverseau.be/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/Grille-horaire-D3-2021-724x1024.jpg To anyone who made it this far, thank you for reading and for any advice, it is greatly appreciated.

Is forensic anthropology the right major for me?
Hi! I've always loved forensics and once I found forensic anthropology it seemed like a good route for me. After doing some more research I realized it requires some math skills, math is not one of my strong suits so I'm doubting my choice. What is it like to actually work with anthropology? For someone who struggles with math, would this be the right choice for me? Should I pick another major? These are questions that have been running through my head.

I'm stuck in my math major, what should I do?
First I'll share some quick background. Currently, I'm a third-year undergrad at University and I initially declared a math major. I enjoyed calculus and all the computational math classes I have taken so far. Still, now I'm taking the more theoretical abstract math and I find that not only do I not enjoy it but I really struggle through it. At first, I was considering an actuarial career, I even interviewed with some companies and was working on passing my first exam, but I quickly became burned out and found that I wasn't enjoying that either. I love accounting as I'm taking Financial Accounting this semester which would have been a part of my Actuarial Science minor. What's unfortunate however is I really can't switch out of my math major, my uni's policies make it impossible. I already have 96 credits because I obtained a bunch in high school (which are irrelevant to my degree) and this makes the idea of transferring kinda hard as well. I would still need to take 8 more math classes to finish my degree, and I'm scared of that idea. I'm assuming becoming an accountant is still possible if I do a minor and then do a Macc afterward, so is this likely the best thing possible for me at the moment? Are there other jobs for math majors that could potentially suit me? I'm okay with coding, it's not my favorite but I like SQL. Any advice from someone who had to stick out a degree they didn't really love? Thank you in advance.

For context, I am taking 3 APs and an astronomy community college class. I am struggling the most with astronomy, physics, and math. I am also the Junior Officer for an aerospace organization at my school called Aerotech and I am a writer and editor for a club called ARRAS (Arts and Magazine Club). In addition to this, I am currently working on a research project and thinking of making a research club for my school and dabbling in music production (hopefully I can start producing music once I can effectively manage my time). In short, I have too much on my plate.
