Hello Guys!
I just finished my first yr science in univeristy and I have to decide my major in 2 monthes. But I don't know if I shall go with life science route or math/physic route. Like most first yr science student, I took chem,physic, and bio.
I got A's in physic and math, but B's in chemistry and biology. I didn't enjoy physic and math in first yr, I just do them cuz I have to, but for some season I got pretty good marks without much effort. Wherease, I spent so much time on studying Biology and Chemistry b/c I actually enjoy the content, but I ended up getting B's in those courses. In fact, biology ended up to be my worst course, but most enjoyable one.
I talked to a friend about it, he told me I should go for the major that interest me the most, cuz first year courses can't really gauge how well I will do in 2yr and on, and students tend to do better in 1st yr math and physic, b/c they require mostly plugging in equations. If I go for biology route, there's a chance I will not do too well. Is he right?
Anyone here encoutered this situation? How did you manage it?
Thanx!!
