Considering Changing major for a 3rd time

<p>I started psych at community college- boring as hell no challenge changed to microbio</p>

<p>I am microbio right now the problem isn't that the work isn't challenging or isn't too challenging it's just the wrong kind of challenge I have a undying hatred for memorizing things I enjoy actually using my mind versus just memorizing stupid bio facts to get a good grade. </p>

<p>I've been considering for over a year now to change my major to chemistry a subject I love or mathematics a subject I also love. </p>

<p>The problem is I took Calc I last year at Rutgers, nailed that class highest grade in the class loved it. Calc II from what I hear is much harder and I've been out of it for a year. </p>

<p>That's not the only problem I'm honestly also worried that I might end up not liking it as well as a math or chem major. I honestly don't want to be a chem major even though it is quiet enjoyable because the unemployment rate I hear is horrific. </p>

<p>I really could careless about the money overall I just want to be happy. I'm premed right now I'm getting As and all I am just miserable. Anyone have any advise?</p>

<p>I'm also changing schools, so that might help.</p>

<p>(Grammar is horrible on this christ.)</p>

<p>Math has decent job prospects. So if you are happy doing math, consider majoring in it with less worry about the job situation than with chemistry or biology. But you may want to supplement it with statistics, computer science, and economics courses for the job front. You can also take the pre-med courses alongside a math major.</p>

<p>Don’t get too discouraged over switching majors, I jumped from Premed -> Physics -> German/Linguistics (my liberal arts classes are so much easier than engineering phase) -> and finally settled on applied math specializing in computing. Somehow I still finished in 4 years (senior year I need to play alot of catchup though :slight_smile: )</p>

<p>I recommend figuring out what you want to do for the rest of your life then picking a major that helps you get there (if you are going to be spending then next 1/3 of your life in a cubicle, might as well enjoy what you are toiling away on).</p>

<p>This might help give you an idea what you can do with each of the majors you are considering:</p>

<p>Good luck!</p>

<p>Biomathematics would honestly be ideal but not many colleges have that major. Rutgers does but I am not staying here for that. I wouldn’t finish for another 3 years at least. If I get into UCLA I’m going to considering doing bioinformatics or something similar because as far as I’m concerned memorizing all of this stuff in these classes does not prepare you for anything. Thank you for the links I’ll check them out.</p>

<p>With your help I’ve figured it out. Going to take math classes as Microbio if I don’t get into medical school then stay another year to get a BS in microbio and mathematics.</p>
