The science/health major is easily one of the hardest majors out there (don't get offended math majors, we know yours is hard too.) Science/health majors include biology, pre-med biochemistry, chemistry, physical therapy, nursing, pharmacy, zoology, nutrition science, optometry, and etc. I don't like to brag, but I'm pretty proud to be amongst these majors at my university. Most of us watch Grey's Anatomy religiously (as does America), so I wanted to express our problems and the suffering we go through with the wise words of the cast of Grey's Anatomy.

5. What it feels like when you study for days and you end up failing the exam
6. When you ask your professor what to study for the exam and they say “the book."
7. When you and your friends get an A on the exam
8. When you don't have enough time to eat with all the studying you're doing
9. The one true way to compliment a science major
10. After giving up your soul to finals week and still not getting the grade you wanted
11. Will there be a curve?
12. When the lab instructor explains the procedure and you still don't understand
13. After studying for 10 hours
14. Because we all deserve a drink (and shots) sometimes.
No matter the struggles we go through, deep (deeeeep) down we truly love what we do and will do once we graduate. We love Science, and can't wait to actually use this information in the future to help people! To those applying for med school, optometry school, pharmacy school, nursing school, or grad school etc, GO KICK BUTT!
