Should I pursue Computer Science, Physics, or Architecture if my goal is to become an astronomer but job prospects are limited in my country?
I am a freshman student in Ethiopia currently facing a difficult decision regarding my major. I am writing to seek advice from professionals who might have experience in these fields or in navigating career paths in developing regions. Currently, I am enrolled in Computer Science, but I am considering switching to either Physics or Architecture. My lifelong dream is to become an astronomer. However, in Ethiopia, pursuing a Physics degree to enter astronomy is often seen as an impractical path, as most graduates end up in teaching roles rather than research. Because of this, I considered Architecture as a more "practical" second choice. However, I have realized that an Architecture degree would not allow me to pursue a Master’s in Astronomy or Physics later on. On the other hand, I have learned that a degree in Computer Science would still allow me to pivot into Astronomy for my Master’s. I am torn between my passion and the practical reality of the job market in my country. Should I stick with Computer Science as a bridge to my dream, risk a Physics degree, or choose Architecture for stability even if it means leaving astronomy behind? I would appreciate any insights or opinions you can share. Thank you for your time and help. *Note: Question asked anonymously by a learner

Is a 1440 SAT not enough for a major in aerospace engineering?
I am a junior, and I just received my SAT score of 1440 on my second try for March (math: 730 and reading: 710). My first try was 1410 back in September (math: 750 and reading: 660). I have been studying for at least the past three months, every day for 1 hour, alternating between reading, grammar, and math. I have also been focusing on the skills in which I have been making mistakes. I feel that I may be leveling out on my score. I would like to get to the 1500s, but now I wonder if that is possible. My parents have offered me one more chance to take the SAT to get a 1500, and I am wondering whether that is possible and what would happen if this were my highest SAT score. I understand that this is a score many people look forward to, but for me, and especially my parents, it is not enough. This has me a bit worried, as my standing in school is not excellent either (I have received 2 Cs so far). Please let me know what you think about this matter and any changes or fixes I can make.

Is being a Graphic Designer a good job for me?
I asked what some good colleges are earlier, but I just thought, is being a graphic designer a good fit for me? I have ADHD and atisum, and I love art I've always hated math, and I'm a good problem solver but I have a hard time doing somthing I say I'm ging to do not like I lie but like "I'm going to get this done before the end of this period!" 2 days later "I'm half way there!" I just can't stay focused! And I do know what college I'd go to if I were to become a graphic designer, but I also want to be a teacher!

My dream job is become a behavioral analyst for the FBI and work with analyzing crime scenes and patterns, studying offender behavior across cases, and creating behavioral profiles. I understand you need to become an special agent first, but I am curious on if 1. getting the MA will actually help me 2. would potentially getting a PHD or a PsyD be even more helpful and lastly, does FBI training force you to away from family for the duration?

I'm planning on starting Palm oil extraction business but finding better means to save up for the equipment needed, especially machines. My current job only gives me 50 thousand naira which is not enough to save up 1.5 million naira needed to purchase the machines anytime soon. I have considered quitting this job to manage my clothing business but I'm scared what if I don't make up to that to save. I really need this extraction business as I already have access to palm fruits but lack equipment to process them to finished product. What more do I need to do?
