Re: FIRST for Non-Engineering Students

I think its great though that you have a passion for robotics and music. Most students from my school end up going into engineering (partially because all students are required to take 4 years of engineering and that is one of the perks of the school). I am a student that is kind of like you; caught between 2 paths. I am currently a co-leader of our build team and LOVE engineering, but I am planning on majoring in Biology when I get into college because I want to pursue my dream of becoming a doctor. I have had that internal debate about if I really want to become a doctor or an engineer. As a freshman in high school (currently a junior), I was looking at colleges based off of if they had a good pre-medicine program AND engineering program in case I changed my mind because I was so unsure at that moment. All I have to say is do what feels right, and whatever you choose to do will be the right decision. Whatever you choose not to pursue you will still always have.
