I am not sure, but how do I know I won't struggle in yet another class, and I would still have to retake chemistry.


That's how it is, grade-wise, my University's biology department is exactly the same, you need a "C" average in order to graduate, and at least a "B" average to be illegible for a graduate study.

I'm an eighteen-year-old freshman, I am [obviously] in no place to give advice, but it seems sensible that you're an adult, and you shouldn't force yourself to do something you don't like.

Thats not every woman in the world, Tim. There are some women like that even in NT women. Money doesn't win happiness and true love.

My opninion to true happiness and true love is a kind, caring, and understanding personalty with someone who share that same personalty and the same feeling for you.

If you don't mind me asking, how good are you in math below the calculus level such as college algebra or trigonometry?

A Law degree takes quite sometime to received.

What kinds of fields of study are in working environments where you generally make your own rules, and not under tons of pressure, and where you can find multiple answers to a problem, rather than dig around to find only one possible solution?

Anthropology is a choice.

Journalism is only for those who are really motivated, and that's definately not you.

My sister's a journalist.
