Middlefield, MA

I'm looking for an engineering field that isn't completely a desk job. Aerospace, electrical, mechanical, and industrial engineering stand out to me. I'd appreciate any insights into the type of work each field has and how they compare.

Just interested, I wish to have opportunities to work with animals.

I really enjoy my physics class and I want to major in astronomy, but am not sure what I want to do with it after college. I'm afraid it will be difficult for me to find a career that I will really love.

I am interested in teaching, something likely involving music, but I don't know how to get involved.

I have about 20 colleges left on my list and I could use some advice as to how I should go about narrowing down my list to find the few I should apply to.

How are college and the top one percent related? Do you have to obtain a good education to make lots of money?

I am a senior at Amherst Regional High School and am intested in studying chemistry in college. Outside of school, I ride horses, sing and dance.

How does one pursue a degree in such, and where would this job likely to have openings?
