I am contemplating dropping out of school right now and taking a year off doing work. Then coming back to a school later, hopefully a less expensive one, where I can take classes only focused on the subjects I want to do in science. My interests are math and physics as well as biology and ecology. I hope to do something like mathematical ecology in graduate school and post grad research. Right now I am a philosophy major because I was too tired to finish my science major and wanted something easier. However, I don't think I want to work in philosophy stuff for the remainder of my life and think frequently about returning to ecology. Maybe I should save money and skip the last year of college, get a job, and rest my mind. Then come back a year later and try to finish original science major. Or I could finish this year in philosophy , find work and then come back a year after that to do science major. However, it seems like wasting time and money. The first idea seems more efficient however I could be diminishing the importance of graduating. Your thoughts please
