One of the apostles, (I don't remember which one, maybe Elder Oaks), said that most of life's biggest decisions are made in hte 10 year period from age 20 to age 30. I, like most of you who are reading this post, am realizing that he was right!
Lindsay graduates in August, after which she would like to do an intensive year-long internship in order to become a registered dietitian. I am trying to finish up and graduate by August also, but the problem is that I decided that I want to minor in statistics, and i would need ot have that done by August also! I am planning on going to graduate school to get a PhD in clinical psychology, with an emphasis in neuroscience. I recently heard that clinical psych PhD programs are some of the most competitive programs around, including more competitive than most medical schools. This scares the pants off of me! Maybe I should have chosen to be something that pays better and won't include another 4-6 years of schooling. I am trying to figure out how to give myself a leg up on other applicants now, and I am getting nervous about applying!
You got this!! Follow what you want to do and everything will work out just fine. In the end, you'll appreciate making this important decision later in the future as you look back. It's important to do what makes you happy, so stick with it!
