Hi /adv/ I'm in the process of narrowing down on a major to focus on and I've been looking at UCLA's Mathematics/Applied Science Major, with a concentration/plan aimed at Life Sciences. I realize it's not the full Math B.S experience, but I like the idea of combining the two in one degree and possibly use it to help me sharpen skills in mathematics and provide early exposure to life science in case I'd ever consider applying to medical school.
However my concern is possibly flexibility. Would a B.S in Mathematics + Biology Minor open more possibilities to various jobs even outside the medical field or would the Mathematics/Applied Science suffice as a good enough Math degree for any particular job as a back up plan?
