I have finishing my business degree because I realized later in my college career how non-fulfilling and boring the business world in general is. Is it possible for me to go into grad school for zoology or another science field? Or should I postpone graduation and work on getting an undergrad or minor in a science field? I don’t have any work experience in science but that is something I could work on somewhat. I have taken about 3-4 science classes in college so far. Any help would be much appreciated!
Thanks,
Kyle

It would really depend on the school you’re applying to and what kind of concentration you want during your graduate study. You’ll almost certainly have to gain more of a science background, either academically or professionally or both. The admissions department will want to know why in the world you want to get a graduate degree in, for example, zoology and you can’t just say, “Because it’s fun!” It might be a good idea to slow down and take a few lower division science classes to see what you’re most interested in. Maybe go part time at school and get a job on campus with a science department that interests you and see what you find out about yourself and your interests. Good luck!
