My POSSIBLE field of study..

As the title suggests, my discipline for Unit 3 is only a possibility for major. All I really KNOW is I like math and I like science-both of which are very present in the field of physics. I'm taking my first college-level physics class this coming semester so I'm excited to see how I like it. I really liked my high school physics class, but I waited to take it until my senior year so I wasn't able to take the AP course. Though this isn't the real reason I'm thinking about physics, I really like the idea of being a woman in a predominately male field. I've always liked the idea of being someone who doesn't fall into the social norm when it comes to professions-like while I think being a nurse is a very noble profession, I am disgusted when men consistently suggest to me I should consider becoming a nurse when I say I'm thinking about med school. I liked the idea of physics for Unit 3 because it will give me a chance to look at what a serious person in that field is doing and see if it interests me.
