A question to the Bachelor of Science kiddies. Do you know where you're going with your degree? Cos I sure as hell don't :|

Medicine, Vet Sci and Pharmacy people do not count for this!

Even though I'm not in a BSc anymore, when I was, if I didn't get my transfer, I was planning in majoring in biology (as in, having almost nothing but biology subjects, lol), doing my honours, and then probably heading into some sort of research field.

Ahh, how I miss my BSc (I actually do!!)

Honours year and then hope for a graduate position of some sort (after completing my BA, given my current situation).

Pure Mathematics and Computer Science honours. From then I wouldnt mind working in either field, preferably combining both.

First preference is forensics, but I'm no fool - I know the odds of me getting a job in that field straight away are highly unlikely. I'll probably start off in a laboratory, maybe working with genetics/microbiology/PCR.

Although, ask me in a year and I'm sure it will be different.

Since I'm combined, the science degree is more for general interest than anything else. I'm focussing on biology and chemistry, it may give me an edge in cases involving bioethics, biotechnology, or relevant intellectual property.
