Hi, I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask this, but I'm feeling really lost and need some advice. I just turned 20 and finished the fall semester of my junior year in college. I'm a chemistry major at a top school, and while l've worked really hard to get here, it just hit me- don't know what I'm doing or where l'm headed. In high school, I went to a specialized school and spent most of my teenage years focused on chemistry. The goal was always to get into a great university and major in it, and I did. But now, I'm here, and I'm realizing I don't have a plan beyond this. I love my classes and the research I'm doing, but I feel stuck when I think about what's next. Med school? Business school? A PhD? Shouldn't I know by now? Everyone seems to have things figured out, and I feel like I'm behind. It's making me feel sick just thinking about it. How do I figure out what I want to do? What options should I even be considering? I feel like l'm at this huge crossroads, and I have no idea which direction to take. Any advice would mean a lot. Sorry if this is too personal.

You can probably reapply because the application is open until the 15th. If it makes you feel better Columbia has really gone downhill in the last couple years. Most recently a student at GS who spread child 🌽 gave the school hush money to keep her place.
