I am taking the second half of college physics in order to apply to Physical Therapy grad school. Can anyone tell me how electrical currents, capacitors and learning the details on how batteries work is related to physical therapy? I find some of this interesting but I feel like I am wasting my time because I do not see how it is relevant. If someone could let me know, maybe I will be able to learn it easier to relate it to what I am aiming for. Thanks.

I know that math isn’t everything in physics, which is why I am asking. I am interested in minoring in physics and possibly go to grad school for the specialized field of mathematical physics at my university. Here are some math courses I’ve taken:

Cal I/II/III, Physics I (Calculus-based), Linear Algebra, Introduction to Mathematical Exposition.

i’m a sophomore in college with a molecular biology/premed major. i just took the practice mcat exam and definitely did not score well at all. i’m worried as to whether i’ll be accepted into med school. i know that i want to be a pediatric neurologist, but if that doesn’t work out, i need to think a/b grad school and the gre. so i’m just wondering what other jobs there are involving my major/maybe medicine? i would like to not have a lab job or be a pa. thanks guys.

I am wondering what I can do with an undergraduate degree in computational biology. I want to go to grad school and get my masters, but i don’t know in what. I have thought of Bioengineering, but i dont know if i can do that. I also want it in something that will have a good salary and will be good for the future. any suggestions?

I’m planning to major in both Biology and Psychology, with hope of going to medical or grad school to study the nervous system.

If I don’t make it into grad school for whatever reason, what other employment opportunities would be available with these degrees?

I am a student entering my senior year at a major university. This past summer, I have rediscovered a passion for biology, primarily through reading Richard Dawkins. It occurs to me that I don’t see much of a future in literary analysis and I find the subject of zoology fascinating. I am currently signed up to take Bio 101 for next semester, but I relatively little time to work with. Should I try and scrape together a bio minor by taking some summer courses or perhaps another semester? Or should I just try and graduate with as high a GPA as possible, take a bio course or two to get a feel, and apply to grad school that way? Or any other possibilities? I am very unsure what to do and would appreciate any help from those with relevant or similar experiences.
