How should I go about being an esthetician?
I am very lost in terms of what to do after high school. I want to get my bachelors in something. I thought maybe to get a degree in business, just so I have a backup plan. What can you even do with a business degree? I applied to all my colleges with business. Should I skip all that and just do the steps to being an esthetician? If so, what should I do?

How exactly do I be a dentist?
I have been thinking about becoming a dentist, but I have like no idea how college really works. I was thinking of going to sac state or sac city college by majoring in biology or biological sciences, and then transferring to UC Davis after 2 years. What should my schedule be like to be on the right track? Is there extra steps I need to do?

Are M.D./Ph.D. (neuroscience specifically) programs worth it ?
I'm currently a high school senior. I already committed to a college and I'll be majoring in neurobiology but I wanted to get some advice from others to see if an M.D./Ph.D. program after undergrad is the way to go (or if just getting an M.D. is better) so that I can start preparing for it. I know I want to become a neurosurgeon and that I definitely do want to do research before residency.
