<p>You are posting on the Stanford Forum as an admitted student (I think), so you have a basis for thinking you are smart about your favorite subject. One thing you’ll learn from biology is that human beings are very adaptable to new challenges, so keep that in mind as you learn what you need to learn to broaden your future possibilities. I’ll share here a very helpful link about that from a new professor at Stanford. </p>
