Biotechnology scope.
I am Arwa from Pakistan, currently studying A-levels. I was quite certain about pursuing Biotechnology, as I planned to complete my BSc abroad. However, as I look into it now, due to some personal reasons, going abroad for my undergraduate studies seems difficult. I am unsure about the scope of Biotechnology in Pakistan, which has left me feeling confused. I don’t know whether I should change my field to something with better opportunities within Pakistan, or continue with Biotechnology and try my best to pursue my Master's degree abroad later. #Spring26 #career-related #biotechnology #bachelors #abroad #university
Which minors should I pursue to deepen my understanding of psychology and discover the various career options in the field ?
Currently, I'm majoring in Psychology with a minor in public service. Though I'm not sure of the career paths that may be available to me. I'm eager to try different roles, specifically in healthcare and community service. I'm also trying to figure out whether I should go to graduate school or not.
What path should I choose?
I am now 27. I completed my BA in 2020 with 5.7 CGPA and dropped my MA course midway in 2022. It's shame that I am sitting idle in these last 3.5 years and still not able to figure out what to do. I just hesitate and keep on thinking before trying to attempt. I have no work experience. I am a clueless person who has no idea about my strengths and what am I capable of. Actually I am stuck between choices. I don't know whether should I crack govt exams like bank, SSC or do something else? Hesitant to crack govt exam because process of selection is long and success rate is low. I am hesitant to do other things due to no work experience and skills. I fear being harassed and scolded at job. I literally have no hobbies other than watching reels on Instagram, youtube shorts and making expenses tracker on google sheets. I cannot even drive any vehicle that I could take up gig work. I am also a person who doesn't wants to compromise. I don't want to leave my city because I cannot share room with others. I also don't want to commute very long distances if within my city. I also have to look after my dog. I don't want to do any course now since I am currently in dire need of money.

How did you decide in pursuing as a psychologist or LCSW despite the lack of career options at the start or struggles?
Hello I am a junior in high school currently in a program where I am getting my associate arts degree (A.A) when I graduate. I’ve been interested in psychology. As I been doing research since the end of sophomore year. I’m currently undecided whether pursuing as a psychologist or a LCSW as I heard it is far less limiting in the field than a psychologist. As it’s more accessible for patients to go to a LCSW and better to be in a private practice. But I’m not sure because I love psychology. However I would want to be able to have a career that I am passionate about and is a stable job (money wise). I plan to do more school after a bachelors to be able to be a psychologist. I’m just worried that I won’t be able to find a job after bachelors to help sustain myself while being in grad school,etc. It’s just lots of worries about that and for paying it all back after doing more school. I need advice or help if anyone is currently a psychologist or in the career field of psychology/lcsw. Or if you were in my position before!!

Should I pursue biotechnology in BSc?
Heyy! I’ve always wanted to pursue Biotechnology, but I’ve noticed that many universities don’t offer a BSc specifically in Biotechnology. Instead, they usually offer programs like Biomedical Sciences or Biochemistry. This has left me with two choices: either go for Biotechnology at universities I’m not really interested in, or choose Biochemistry or Biomedical Sciences now and specialize in Biotechnology later during my Master’s. Because of this, I’m genuinely confused. If Biotechnology is such a promising field, why do so many universities not offer it as a main BSc degree?

Would it be possible to work towards an Associates and Bachelors at the same time??
Hi, I'm a rising junior interested in becoming an orthodontist and I want to know how much I'll be able to take on once I go to college. I've heard you can get some Associates degrees online, which is something I've recently become interested in. My question is could I get an Associates in Dental Assisting online whilst simultaneously working towards a Bachelors Degree (bio or chem) in person? If not, I'll settle with a Bachelors, but I'm curious if both are attainable as I don't want to spend more time than I have to. Thank you!

What can I do this summer (summer before senior year) to improve my college applications?
Hello! This summer will be my last summer in high school. This fall, I'll be applying to colleges. I was wondering what things I could do this summer to improve my applications. I'm signing up to volunteer at my local hospital however, I found out it's lottery-based, not skill-based, so I am not sure if I'll get the spot. I am also going to retake the SAT this August, I wanted to take the ACT, however, I am not too sure. I also plan to tutor young kids in my community. I feel like I am not doing enough and that my peers are way ahead of me. I plan for my major to be public/community health, so it would be better if I did things in relation to that. Please let me know of some other things I could do to improve my college apps!!! Thank you :)
