Is multivariable calculus or linear algebra better for someone who would like to become a doctor?

I'm taking calculus BC (high school), and unsure of whether to go into multivariable calculus or linear algebra next. I would like to become a doctor, as a surgeon specializing in orthopedics.

What does a day in the life of an astrophysicist/cosmologist look like?

What does one do during the day? Would you study research that has come out about new materials and other things, try to come up with theories, or try to find flaws in theories that have been brought up?

How do you guarantee yourself to be successful, is there a backup plan, or do you have a system?

I’m struggling a little with school, and I just need a little shove in the right direction to get the right mindset to get back in line with everything.

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!!
