I an currently a Serior in highschool. Here are the fields of medicine that I am interested in, in the order of which one I like most:

Psychiatry
Anesthesiology
Neurology
Forensic Pathology

I know that all of these fields require a certified M.D. Do I have to choose which field I wan't to be in before Freshman year, or can I choose after the 8 years olf medical school, and then just start internship and residency? I want to have the ability to change my mind 7th year of medical school, but I'm not sure if I can. I might find out that I hate talking to people, there goes Psychiatry. I might find out that I am squeemish, there goes Pathology. After I have my 8 years of schooling in, I can choose any medical field I want, right? I love the concept of helping people through intelligence, and putting bad people away. So all of those fields are perfect for me. Well I hope you guys can help me, take it easy all. Ciao!

Any suggestions for such a trip? Will follow one suggestion to start in NYC: Cornell's medical school, the Weill-Cornell medical school is actually located at 1300 York Avenue, NY, NY, which is 54.47 miles from Bridgeport. (Drove to Ithaca and may save the 6-8 hour trip). Columbia's medical school is located at 630 W 168th Street, Manhattan, 52.37 miles from Bridgeport. I think they're both about 8 miles apart. It may be possible to do both in a single day, which would make a trip to Princeton Med school and Penn med school (55 miles apart) possible. Where I live in Bridgeport CT; close enough to Yale to have already gone a couple of times. Finally, to visit Brown, then Harvard then Dartmouth in a weekend. Any suggestions?

Do I need a fashion degree to become a fashion journalist or can I just have a basic Journalism degree? I really want to write and fashion is my one big thing I know I can write about besides other things but fashion is my main goal as a writer. So would I have to major in fashion or just journalism?

In psychology class today, my professor said that a handful of states, like Hawaii and New Mexico, allow psychologists to prescribe certain medications as long as they complete additional post-doctorate education. In your opinion, is this progressive? Or are they unqualified? Why/Why Not?

For all you overachievers :), feel free to answer this as well: If other states follow this example, what does this mean for psychiatry?

ok I had this really miserable teacher last semester...I mean they were a nice "person" but a bad teacher, always late, annoyed w/ students if you didn't get the subject right away, etc.. And unfortunately I found out today that i'm STUCK with the same person. They teach the only section of the class that I need that is being offered. Its also not offered next semester (and i'm scheduled to graduate so I can't wait another year). Any ideas???

I got my bachelors in mechanical engineering from a pretty good engineering school (UCSB) which ranks one of the highest in terms of research.

I've been wanting to pursue a master's degree at a school with similar prestige. However, I just found a good job in the aerospace industry that pays pretty well and I just got married.

I don't have time to get letters of recommendation or to take the GRE. I'm busy enough trying to support my wife and I. the only thing I could do is get an online master's degree.

I've been reading around and a lot of people are saying UC Davis is not necessarily a "good" school for pre-med since mostly it's agricultural when compared to other schools like...believe it or not...and with all due respect....UCSB

Some even rank UC's as :
1) berkeley 2) UCLA 3) UCSD 4) irvine 5) UCSB(are you kidding me) 6) UC Davis

this is ridiculous....I thought UC Davis had much more reputation than people accredit them for, especially the pre-med "program" (if that's what you'd like to call it)

Am I wrong? or is this true?
so pre-med students at UC Davis should be a bit pessimistic towards their medical school goals?!?

and I've found out that many med students come out from UC Irvine and Davis is ranked like 3rd or 4th...are all my statistics wrong? Am I wrong?

Hi! I have been a pharmacy technician for 17 years and I am burned out! Love the actual work...tired of nagging, complaining people. I want to change careers but hate to throw away 17 years of pharmacy and insurance knowledge. Any suggestions for a job in which I could still use some of this knowledge? And get paid a decent wage? Not asking for the moon, just maybe a wage over $20 per hour. Maybe that is asking for the moon.....I don't know....I've been locked away in the pharmacy too long! Also, I am currently enrolled in college taking business classes. Thanks for your time!

Besides getting and a.a. degree in a technical field is it really worth it to get it in anything? Couldn't you just go to a four year institution and take the time to get a B.A.? Or even take the classes at a community college and transfer them w/o getting the A.A.?

I grew up in an area without junior colleges and the like and knew hardly anyone with an A.A. degree so I never saw the point in getting one.

My in-laws are immigrants and think the A.A. actually means something great. I have no way to explain to them they are mistaken. I went straight for a four year degree and they don't understand how I didn't get an A.A. first. I saw absolutely no need. Am I alone in this thinking?

Also, what are the prospects for a cousin-in-law getting a good job with an A.A. in broadcasting? Is that considered a technical field?

Thanks in advance.
