How can I be sure that this is the field I want to go into?
My future can change at any moment, why would I want to stick to the plan of going into a STEM field? I've always loved science, but what if there is a different option I could go for not in the STEM field? Would it be worth it? #college #biology #bachelors-degree
If you could meet the person who inspired you to pursue a STEM field who would it be and why?
I want to know who inspired those before me, why they chose to help set the way for me. #doctor #scientist
Is chemistry considered a difficult major?
I'm really interested in going into cosmetic chemistry but first I have to get my bachelor's in chemistry. I've heard that it is a difficult major and I just want to make sure. In no way will anyone's answer change my mind about what I want to be but I just want to make sure. #chemistry
When asked the question, "Why do you want this job" what's the best way to respond?

Should I talk about my failures when being interviewed for a job?
I read an article about how a recruiter who interviews students got an answer of "I expect failure" from one of the students. Then they went and wrote an article on how this answer was amazing. Should I do the same and state some failures like struggles in class or should I keep that to myself....
Does an Aerospace engineer figure out how planes can be made better? What classes should I take for this career I want to be part of?
I joined a STEM program last month and we created robots, I thought it was create. Then during break there was a aerospace information table. I just love how they work with planes. I also love traveling in planes. I also got interested in this field when my friends dad came to my school to talk...
What is the primary difference, whether it be course work and classes or what kind of study each are, between a applied physics/ engineering physics major versus a mechanical engineering major? What career opportunities do each of the majors give?
I am confused between applying to college for an applied physics and engineering physics major or simply a mechanical engineering major without clearly understanding what each major entails. I don't know the specific differences between the two majors and it would definitely help if someone...
Is there a merit selecting an Applied Physics/ Engineering Physics major over a mechanical or aerospace engineering major career wise in the future? Which offers more critical problem-solving requirements for these jobs?
As a student primarily interested in math, physics, and engineering, I constantly wonder which major I should decide. I have loved the necessary logic and problem solving required in some of the math and physics courses I take in high school but always consider if engineering is the right major...
