Any zoology majors out there?

[skykat_48]

I am still in high school. I will be attending college in a little more than two years. What classes should I be taking now? How do you like your major so far? How far can a zoology major take you into being with, and helping animals?

Take algebra, calculus, physics, chemistry, ecology, and physiology if your school offers it. You will have to take all of these in college as a zoology major, and a good solid background in these subjects will help you immensely. I really liked my zoology classes..I did not much care for all the chemistry and physics, but upper division courses that I got to chose myself were amazing! You can get a job helping animals with this degree, you can work as a zookeeper, you can work as a biologist studying animals in the wild, you can work in a lab, for a museum, doing research for a university, or as a teacher (with credentials).
