I can do what?!

I had a registration appointment for my first semester as a college senior about a week and a half ago. Everything was progressing as a normal appointment would when my advisor suddenly asks me "So, are you planning on attending medical school? Or how about law school?" Considering I am double majoring in English literature and English writing, I found this strange. How could I possibly go into either of those fields without a background in either political science/history or some form of science?

Apparently this isn't all that uncommon though. Which I find strange. Very strange. How could I possibly be qualified to enter medical school as an English major? I withdrew from my biology class in the fall because I was not doing well. I've taken astronomy and intro psych as my sciences thus far - neither would carry me in the world of surgery, pills, etc. I was talking with my roommate about this and we determined the only thing I could do that would be useful would be write prescriptions that the pharmacist could read.

Good sense of humor, Erin. It helps to keep things in perspective and it appears you handle that well through ironic sarcasm. I look forward to learning about your job search and the various nuances of it. Welcome to "Insights!"
