I definitely would have done engineering, with some sort of biology integration. Symmetry and straight lines rock my socks.


Although I've already decided that if I fail out of med school in Pakistan i'm just going to become a radio dj there. I'm convinced that I could still do a better job than most of them while jumping with one hand tied behind my back on a pogo stick.

Anyone who has been subjected to Pakistani radio has my sympathies.

I would study math. Nothing is as fun as math, except maybe cutting people open haha.. And I would have been like those crazy proffesors just obsessed with math.. math math math all day long!
Or I would try to be a pilot for commercial airlines. Yes, I'm a girl, but girls can be pilots too, right?

Haha wow interesting question

I would probably go into teaching if medicine wasn't an option. Not sure what level, college/university would be impressive but high school teaching has its own charm. I'd love to teach history or poli sci because there's so much room for discussion in those subjects.

Either that or I'd wanna pursue a career in Chemistry because I find it the most interesting of the 3 basic sciences

the words they use in astrophysics are so darn impressive!

"4.5 light year away, the space-time continuum has been bent out of proportion leading to proof that the shape of the universe is a horse shoe"
