Biology / Biological Sciences, General:
Biology can be a wonderful, exciting, and fulfilling major if the student is willing to work and study hard. Maintaining a high GPA in a biology major can be difficult and may not provide the student the same amount of free time that is available to students in other majors, but the usefulness and respectability of the degree will make up for this in time. If one is considering this major, one must first determine if one is willing to do the work that is required and to put in the necessary amount of time that will be necessary. I would recommend this degree to anyone who wants to go into a medical field or to anyone who wants to pursue a scientific degree but is not sure where to start. Many of the requirements for biology majors will be applicable to other science majors as well if the student decides to switch at some point in the future. Despite the sometimes overwhelming amount of work and time that this major has demanded of me, I would definitely choose this major again. It gives you a better understanding of the world in which you live and provides a large sense of accomplishment. |

Biology / Biological Sciences, General:
Biology is a very interesting major if one has an inquisitive mind. Biology is the study of life so one is going to go into a lot of details of how our body works, how our body works with environment, how the cell of our body works and also one would also study plants and animal kingdom. so one should be ready to dig their heads into their books. I would definitely reccommend a major in biology because it makes you aware of your surrounding and it give you more information on how our body works. if i had to do it over again i would not choose biology as my major but i will do it as a minor. the pros is that its one of the easiest science major and almost every school has a major called biology and the con is that you cannot find a job with just a bachelor in biology you have to further your education by getting a masters or even a Ph.D |

Biology / Biological Sciences, General:
I probably would not choose this major again, although I enjoyed the areas of study. After I graduated I realized that I did not want to work in biotech or as a field biologist. It was a difficult major if your goal is to just get a college degree - I guess I wasn't passionate ehough about the subject area. |
