Hey CC! New here today so hoping this works well! Hope everyone is having a fantastic weekend filled with nothing but the best. Today I have come to ask for some advice regarding my future. I have given it heavy consideration recently and think I have narrowed down to a vision of what path I desire to take.

About me: I’m a go getting people person. I love helping people and making a difference in lives. Human interaction and public speaking are some of my favorite things to engage in. My biggest fascination falls in either the brain
(How it cognitively controls our everything and just what’s behind it all (Nerd)) and business. I am also a 3 sport Athlete who is in love with sports, and more importantly; the brain behind the sports.

For these reasons, I have gained a big picture of wanting to start my own business post-college. A top performer/athlete/anyone consulting place where we help people tap into there greatest self through the most important part; the brain. I would also conduct many additional things such as podcasts/public speaking events to help all better their lives. (That’s the big picture to get a gauge on my outlook).

Now, my question is what education path do I take to get there? I know I want to take the cognitive neuroscience path (Psychology is useless in today’s world), and then also have business in there.

-What combination would I need of majors or minors?
NeuroScience Maj & Bus. Minor?(Or Vice Versa) Double Major? Major in one and just take supplementary classes in the other?

-What additional training would i need post-grad?

-Do you guys at CC have any input as to where would be a good fit for me and my goals?

(4.57 GPA, 32 ACT, Class President, Varsity Captain Basketball and Volleyball, FBLA & DECA National Qualifier 2015, Founder of Badminton Club, Freshman Mentor, NHS, Scholar Bowl (Nerd I know;) as well as a few other things)

I’m hoping to get a merit scholarship. Location is not an issue. I think my personality is definitely a large school fit.

Thank you all for your help!
