What do you do in your major, what is the advantages or disadvantages of your career, and lastly, have you ever regretted your decision of your career and why,... etc.

I'm struggling with choosing my career recently (as a 11th grade student). I have interests in physics, math kind of science. Few considerations are mechanical engineering jobs, architecture, IT/computer science, ...etc. I hope I'll get a respond from those professionals.

How much do you truly use math in architecture (without going on Google or use any type of website for calculation)?

I have been very interested in houses and architecture since I was a little girl. I love observing houses with cozy and unique features. I have considered real estate, which is a fantastic career, but I will always choose architecture. I would love to know more about this profession!!

Does genetic counseling involve more math or writing in addition to biology and genetics?

I have better math skills than writing skills so I was wondering how well a genetic counselor career would work for me.

What proficiency would be considered paramount in scientific fields?

I understand that people in these fields need to be proficient in science and critical thinking, as well as curious. Can you tell me more about how these factors are used in your work, if at all? Which of these, if any, would you find most important for your line of work?
