Alternate Major A general curiosity of numerical calculations in the existence of matter is the major root-cause for majoring in Chemistry. In essence, a lack thereof of such curiosity fuels the desire to transition from Chemistry to another science-related fields. One popular change is from Chemistry to Biology. I personally think that changing my major to Biology will be the easy route to take because the comparison between the two illustrates a rather compelling idea of 39 credits to obtain a Bachelors in Science in Biology, as compared to the 48 credits required for a Bachelors in Chemistry. The what/if degree audit illustrates that there will be little classes needed to be taken after finishing this current 2015 Fall semester. Personally however, I

in Chemistry requires a Minor cluster with a total of 9 credit hours to finish, while the B.S. in Biology does not require a minor. On a lighter note, my strengths of being strategic, deliberative and a learner is highlighted when I chose a B.S. in Chemistry as oppose to a B.S. in Biology. I had planned and looked ahead of the possible downfalls of simply becoming a Biology graduate, which in most cases is the lack of jobs present for a Biology graduate. When I was still in Southeastern Community College (SCC), I had continuously researched and pondered of the possibilities that can happen if I were to take Biology as a major. I ended up with a single conclusion that Biology is a complex scientific field and finding such jobs for it will be very difficult since the major composition of Biology is the ideologies about the living entities. However, if I became Chemistry major, I will have an even broader knowledge than Biology major could ever be. In the end, as my mentor in SCC once said, “every scientific fields will always have a relation with Chemistry, one way or another.” This essentially convinced me that I needed to strategically study Chemistry in order to understand higher levels of science
