<p>I'm very intersted in Cornell University as one of my reach schools.</p>
<p>When I go to college I want to study the natural sciences.
I enjoyed taking AP Chemistry and AP Biology this year as a Junior, and I really liked learning about the course material. I especially liked learning about plant anatomy, human anatomy, and ecology in AP Biology.
On the other hand, I just could NOT understand my first-year physics class I took in freshman year.</p>
<p>I'm trying to choose between the School of Agriculture and Life Sciences or the School of Human Ecology.
I'm not sure what I want to do as a career, but I know I want it to be about natural science, preferably plants and animals.</p>
<p>I'd really appreciate any more information on the two colleges and how they are different. I read a bit about them on their respective websites, and I will be doing more research. If anyone has any information that might help me, I would greatly appreciate it!!</p>
<p>The Ag School seems like a better fit for you. Human Ecology won’t offer the courses you enjoy. Human Ecology is not as reputable as the Ag School which is probably the best Ag School in the country.</p>
<p>Ag school is the obvious choice. (Cornell’s HumEc program really looks closely at fit.) If you struggle with physics, sign up for a tutor before classes start so you won’t get behind.</p>
<p>Ag school also has the school of Applied Economics, one of the top 10 undergraduate Business programs in the US. I would definitely go for the Ag school.</p>
<p>Plant and animal biology or natural resources would be in the Ag. college. Human biology (especially nutrition, psychology, cognition) would be in Hum. Ec. Transferring from one to the other would not be hideously difficult if you find out that you have started in the wrong one. Read up on both of them, and do your best to visit the campus and tour both colleges. </p>
<p>Good luck!</p>
<p>Thank you so much, everyone. By the looks of it, I will go for the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences. I’m really interested in it, and I’m glad that your replies supported my overall view.</p>
