@FaizanAshraf You haven’t given nearly enough info for any of us to recommend majors or colleges.
Hi,
If you don’t know which major to choose, consider looking at the classes you are taking and your extracurriculars to find your strengths in different subject areas to narrow the choices down. You could also take an online major quiz to see which field you should pick a major in (math, science, english, history, etc.). For your college search, ask your high school counselor to look at your grade transcript and tell him/her about your extracurriculars too. Ask him/her to suggest certain colleges that they think would be a good fit for you.
Go to an EducationUSA office to get more information on how to apply to US schools and what requirements you need to apply. https://educationusa.state.gov
Certain coursework is required as are tests: SAT or ACTs and TOEFL for most schools. Yo may need letters of recommendation ad school paperwork.
I’m actually interested in orthopedics … so I’m thinking to choose biology or medical science as majors but this field is costly I’m trying my best to keep my gpa 4.0 and have great credits … I and i’m not sure how much financial aid or scholarship will cover my expenses
@FaizanAshraf as aunt bea said, you should check the requirements needed for US colleges you want to apply to.
Financial aid tends to be very limited for state universities if you live out-of-state or internationally. So keep that in mind.
