You weren’t seriously asking for advice?

No I was asking for opinions based on my options. Advice is more open ended than what I was looking for. Rn dropping out isn’t an option, neither is it something I was to hear.

So you were asking for opinions but you weren’t asking to be taken seriously? How do I know you actually want people’s opinions?

This dude commented that in the attempt to belittle me please don’t be dense. My use of slang doesn’t take away from the fact I needed ppl to weigh in. I wrote like 2 paragraphs I think that’s serious enough. I am a 17 year old girl needing a few opinions. It’s really never that deep

I’ve written countless of research papers at a high school level the longest being 45 pages, in which I was analyzing protein synthesis. I am currently writing one about the plausibility of editing a human embryo to have a heterogenous advantage against malaria using Cas 9 Crispr. Im looking for this to later be published. I currently intern at the NIH and at Labcorp. On a subreddit i will not be using professional grammar because it quite frankly doesn’t warrant that. I will not be belittled for using causal grammar in a casual space. Don’t try and lecture me, when you haven’t a single ounce of knowledge when it comes to my intellectual level. Remove the log out of your eye before you belittle me for the spec in mine. I won’t be pushed around by some Reddit geezer looking to troll people to make them feel better about their miserable lives :>

I don’t think I care in all honesty. I asked a question because I’m only 17 and I need ppl to lmk what’s up. I’m not standing before a panel of Hopkins graduates. Mind you lol isn’t shitty grammar. As I have said I’m literally a teenager I know when to use lol and when not to. We’re not idiots
