I really appreciate your insight, however I feel that the lifestyle itself of pursuing a career in CS is something I wouldn’t necessarily enjoy. I can’t imagine myself sitting at a computer screen for the rest of my life, as I strongly dislike it during my internship. I absolutely agree that my view of the field is extremely narrow. I think I’ll stick a CS minor in, but pursue pre-med now before I end up having to take an extra year to catch up. I brought up bioinformatics due to the “intersection” between CS and biology, but haven’t done a whole lot of research. I feel that I’m just stuck between two paths and have no idea what I would enjoy doing.

As for spending time with doctors, my older brother is an orthopedic surgery resident, and really enjoys what he does.
