I'm almost set on taking on a minor, Bioinformatics to be specific. It has a ton of opportunities and benefits because I get to do independent research where I'll present my project and the results, also one of the required classes has the possibility of getting published. I'm taking a gap year and all these experiences will probably help me when looking for a research position. The cons? One of the classes is said to be pretty difficult and I'd be taking it along with science-heavy semester. Would it be a good idea to get this minor? Besides all the pros and cons application wise, I've always been interested in programming and tech, so a field that incorporates those with biology seems great.
