Pharmacy
From botany, to biology, to biochemisty, and finally to pharmacy. I am a first year…and I hope I have finally settled to the right major. Biology apparently was too vague to find a job. Biochemistry was pushing the limits on my class schedule. I do not know what happened to botany. And pharmacy…involves chemistry, which I love. I still find it extremely challenging, but I am not scared of it. I will take a couple C’s here and there, but I’m also learning how to challenge myself by picking this major. I have always been one of those people to constantly look for a challenge. All throughout high school, I took all the AP classes. That does not mean I got A’s in them, but I figured I might if it is available, I might as well try it. So, pharmacy. Unfortunately, I don’t really know what I have to do to get to that secure pharmacist job, so I just listen and do whatever my advisors tell me to do. Hopefully this pharmacy day and pharmacy research day will help me figure some things out. I have always loved science and I have known since my early high school years that I wanted to follow up on my science courses. So, I took every available science course in high school. Now, I will continue with my chemistry studies because I find it interesting. Not only is it interesting, it comes with money. Ha I know, how greedy right? My dad has always told me to find a nicely-incomed job that you can wake up in the morning without dreading going to work. Being a pharmacist will hopefully be this job.
there's nothing wrong with wanting a well paying job, having a compfortable life is hard nowadays
ReplyDeleteMy roommate is in the pharmacy program. Though he is going to be in school for a long time, pharmacists are very well paid, so he (and you) have that to look forward to.
ReplyDeleteI don't think there is anything wrong with changing majors. It's pretty unlikely to enter college and keep the same major throughout. I've changed mine to undecided.
