Hi! I’m a high school senior. girl… in this turbulent period of confusion and chaos… echhh

Anyways, getting straight to my question: I’m trying to do common apps right now and schools are asking me which major i am most likely to major in at their college. I looked at common app for Yale, and it didnt have biology…

and anyways, im not even that sure I want to do general, literally, biology… maybe something more specific, less broad.

So i was wondering if u guys could give me some info on which sci major might suit me best. Im definitely not a computer science person. I want to do science but i dont want to spend all my time in a lab; i want to go out and do some hands on experience as well, whether that be in a hospital or in “nature.” and im also pretty interested in global warming&preserving the earth. but as much as i am interested in the environment, i also really like biology; cells, human physiology, DNA, genetics… all the stuff i learned in HS for bio (which really wasnt all that much)

i dont think i will go to med school (international student;too expensive), but im still leaving the door open

i was maybe thinking of biomedical engineering… but i heard its one of the toughest courses… and I want a challenging major but i dont want to DIE…

Thanks!!
