Listen "Should You Study a Bachelor of Science?"
Episode Synopsis
What we're talking about: 2:50 Don't assume you know what you can study in Bachelor Science I did all maths and science subjects in VCE, and never even considered a Bachelor of Science. Why? Because I felt like I wasn't that good at Chemistry or Physics, and I didn't realise that I could do a Bachelor of Science and major in Maths or something similar (which was clearly my strength and something I loved to explore). Don't make assumptions - check the majors so you know what a course is actually about so you can make an informed decision. 5:23 What types of majors can you study in a Bachelor of Science If you're considering a Bachelor of Science, you really want to check what majors are offered at the university you're looking at to see if they focus on the types of areas you're interested in. Start by asking yourself questions about what you already know you like. What science subject at school do you like best? What topics do you like within that subject? If you're not sure, hop onto the websites for the different unis and read through the majors offered to see which one has a couple of majors that you could see yourself studying, and then explore them in your first year before you choose which one to focus on.
