Biology or Anatomy and Cell Biology?

<p>I like the courses in both biology and anatomy & cell biology for different reasons. I honestly can't decide. Anyone have some insight they could possible share?</p>

<p>Thanks in advance!</p>

<p>Neither. Go with Biomedical Engineering.</p>

<p>why do you suggest that?</p>

<p>Because there are no jobs in the sciences. The major doesn’t teach you any skills except how to memorize a bunch of stuff.</p>

<p>At least you will have decent job prospects if you major in biomedical engineering.</p>

<p>i’ll take your word for there being no jobs in sciences. i don’t know much about that seeing as i’ve only spent a year in undergrad. regardless, I choose passion over money making, plus engineering is not for me haha.</p>

<p>The specific undergrad degree you get won’t matter that much. Those are all per-med degrees. That means you either:</p>

<ul>
<li><p>Do any of them then go to medical/pharmacy/dental/optometry/etc. school.</p></li>
<li><p>Do any of them then do a PhD and go into a teaching/research position.</p></li>
<li><p>Do any of them then burn out on science after graduating and transition into law/accounting.</p></li>
</ul>

<p>There really just isn’t a market for undergraduate biology majors. That doesn’t mean that it’s a bad or dumb major obviously, just that people pretty much assume you’re going to a graduate/professional school afterwards.</p>

<p>I fully intend on applying to graduate school so I’m not thinking so much about job prospects yet. I’m asking for insight in terms of difficulty, usefulness and how interesting either major is.</p>

<p>Personally, for myself i’m leaning towards majoring in biology. I think you should pick which ever interests you the most. This will keep you focused and you will be able to get a higher gpa than taking classes you have less interest in.</p>
