<p>JHS, why do you say that " your major doesn’t matter that much"? This is one of the most important things for a college student to decide. To the OP, the fact that you say you’re good at applied math screams computer science to me. Computer science has good employment prospects and very good career advancement prospects. Furthermore, the application of computer science to biological studies (bioinformatics) is open too if you’re interested. Don’t make the mistake of randomly choosing a unknown major. Sure, the Harvard name will open doors but that will not make any difference if you choose a wrong major.</p>
