When I started down the OU route, I was wavering between biology and geology. Both subjects that interest me deeply; both subjects that have aspects that I'm very much less interested in (ugh, mineral stuff! Ugh, biochemistry and cells!).
As I get towards the end of S276 Geology, and really get stuck into S366 Evolution, it's becoming very clear that what I really, really love is the detective work of delving into the past and trying to solve the mysteries presented by ancient life and ecosystems.
So, err, both. Drat.
I've just spent lunchtime updating my study plan. Never mind Understanding the Continents; I like the grand scale of plate tectonics but the more study I do the more I realise that delving into the detail will just make me miserable. The multidisciplinary nature of Oceanography, however, is starting to make me salivate.
