I'm a high school student and at a loss for what to pursue after graduation. Science communication is the first career that has grabbed my eye in years. I love writing, but I know it's extremely difficult to make a living from it, and this seems like a solid balance. My main concern is whether this is actually a stable career path. By the way, it would most likely be focused on biology, but I definitely would not mind writing about space (for NASA, I hope!).

I know I have time, but I want a general direction for next year so I can strengthen my background and not panic over my college applications.

For those of you in the field or in similar industries:

• Is science communication a stable field?
• What should I be doing in HS and college to prepare for this?
• Would I even be hired straight out of uni?

Thank you!

the frqs were NOWHERE as difficult as the ones my teachers gave me this year. I got a freaking B last semester but this test did not match the class rigor at all. I'm not complaining about an easy 4 or 5, but damn last year must've been bad if they made questions this easy. I didn't even study at all and just spent yesterday and today scrolling and gaming 💔
