My name is Caio… Not ciao (Italian greeting). Its like ky-oh. I am a student in DUS but I am pursuing a degree in Finance from Smeal and a minor in Economics. I am taking this course because I heard that this is an extremely interesting science course to take to fulfill the science requirement. I had always liked science in grade school but on a very shallow level. I was never interested in the deep explanations and tedious labs and experiments. Chemistry and biology were the most dreadful classes I took in high school simply because it went so deep that I lost interest. I never really cared much about how many atoms there are in an element or which genes cause a sperm and egg to be a male or female. There are many things that I would still like to learn about in science but on a shallow level. I understand that this may make me seem like a lazy person but I just want to learn many things and make sense of them, not master them. 

This is the same reason why I don’t want to pursue a science degree. There are other things that I am more interested in like finance and stock and other things. I don’t think I could have a career in science. First of all, I don’t think I could last through college. All the labs and tedious classes (like organic chemistry) would lose my interest in the first weeks. Then if by some miracle I do graduate and graduate again (you can’t do much with a bachelors in science) and get a job with science I would wind up going back to school for something else. I couldn’t have a job that I spend countless hours experimenting something that might not even have a real answer. I wouldn’t be able to handle all the rejections when an experiment goes wrong. I think I’ll just stick to something like finance where I could help people make the right financial decisions while being able to be up to date with current events and many other things.
