Q: (Initially posted December 17, 2003) FROM MEMBER LAUREN
S. IN CT
I LOVE science, but I'm not doing extremely well in biology,
and I just took
the NADT tests, and science wasn't one of my strong points.
Surprisingly, in school,
my highest grade is in world history, and I tested the best
in history on the NADT
test. What should I do? The only job opportunity [that I know
about] containing history, science, and little math (I hate
math) is archaeology. Are there any others?

The first thing you need to think about is: What are you interested
in?
What is a really cool job to you? How did the people who have
that job get
to be in this position? Training, schooling etc...
As far as some jobs that contain history, science and, depending
on the
exact sub-field, little math what about:
Geography, Economic, Political, Social, Cultural Sociology
Science or History Teacher

A: FROM MODERATOR SARAH SHIRK

Don't let a standardized test decide your future. YOU need
to decide your future. Many educators are critical of those
standardized tests. As with any human endeavor they are imperfect
and full of bias. Certainly you know your strengths and weaknesses
better than a test does. What do you think your career strengths
might be?
