You can work in a natural history museum, zoo, national parks, any research organization that deals with existing and extinct animals, school(university), consulting, various government agencies that deal with ecosystems, natural reserves, zoological societies, animal disease control, etc, doing jobs of molecular technician, marine invertebrate biologist, any staff in an office of science and technology in a national marine fisheries, national history collections curator, conservation associate, comparative animal physiologist, any staff in a zoonotic disease defence center, ecologist, project scientist, field biologist and the list goes on

as a zoological cell biologist, you could even get a job working with human cell biology ... human or veterinary (agricultural animal) field is probably a more likely place to find a job than the general animal field.

I suspect work-study is OK, although any college financial counselor in PA should be able to tell you.\n\nI doubt that you can be a veterinarian, however, since that requires keeping, buying, selling and dispensing controlled substances.

I'm not sure of the exact requirements for GCSEs, or what colleges and universities require in way of GCSE, but for the zoology program I went through in Canada, I required advanced high school level courses (the approximate equivalent of A-levels) in English, Math, Biology, Physics and Chemistry just to enter the first-year program.  I imagine most departments would have similar requirements.

You could work as a science correspondant, you could be a science writer working as a consultant, you could get a job in sales of science products, you could get any of a number of medical-related degrees such as nursing, pharmacy, etc, physical therapy, laboratory technician, get your MBA and work for a pharmaceutical company, be a science teacher in grade school, high school, or trade school-If you are negating botany or zoology, that leaves most of the other options open, such as microbiology (bacteria), cell biology, genetics, organ-specific studies (neuroscience, cardiac science, etc), become a wildlife specialist...the list is longer, but the options are legion.

I have a degree in zoology and work as a wildlife biologist.  I love what I do.  I am outdoors all day, pretty much make my own schedule, get to do a lot of travel(have studied birds in the arctic tundra in Alaska, Florida, Tennessee,  Colorado and throughout California, and my job is always changing so I don't get bored.  One day I'll work with birds, the next reptiles or fish.  You can also work as a zookeeper with a biology degree or go into vet school.  You might also look into majoring in Biology or wildlife studies and see which program looks most interesting to you.  Hands on experience is a must.  Try to get in some volunteer work to see what you can expect and what you are best at and what you like to do the best.

Depending on your results and the enjoyment you gain from understanding and learning the subject......find out what options you have.\n\nPerhaps you would like to specialise (many options from marine biology to forensic pathology).\n\nBasically you need to consider which career would bore you less than all the others whilst still bringing in enough money to fund a plush home, car, wife and kids.....lol.

It depends on your goals. \n\nFor example, UMass Amherst, through their Stockbridge School, offers several associates degrees related to farming. Santafee Community College in Florida offers an associates degree in a program that trains you to work in a zoo. \n\nHowever, if you want to be a vet, you'll need a four year degree in a biologicial science, then you'll need to go to veterinary school.

Study biology. Not very much math there, it will be the core component of veterinary studies. Microbiology, immunology, physiology...all good stuff. And the English helps-being able to communicate well is important. \nBut probably just as important as the biology is BUSINESS KNOWLEDGE. STUDY BUSINESS. Double Major if you must. There will be more math in Business than biology, but it won't be very hard. \n\nWhat a lot of would-be vets don't realize is that when you become a "vet" out in the real world, you often times work for yourself, or in a partnership. You might start off in somone else's practice at first, but if you want to have your own clinic, you will have to purchase (or lease) a LOT of VERY EXPENSIVE equipment. You will have to bill clients. You will have to maintian a pharmacy and a balance sheet. If you study business, you will be more prepared for this aspect of being a vet. A lot of vets end up making next to nothing because they are not prepared for the financial burdens that they have. \n\nBut if you are intimidated by that much math, then try history or literature or language studies. The world needs good teachers.

I was actually going for psychology--another surprising major they mentioned was drama/theater--and that was in the SeaWorld book!\n\nHope those links helped you out--if you need anymore help please visit my profile page and contact me! I have so much information on becoming a dolphin trainer because I was pursuing that career as well. I have a list of books too that may be helpful. Just let me know.

Without a master's in marine biology, you'll be hard pressed to do funded research. But you could get jobs as a zookeeper, an aquarist, work at a rehabilation center, etc. Alot of those jobs are based off of experience rather than having a degree. Just keep in mind that jobs in this field can be hard to come by, and they don't pay well at first. I was originally a marine biology major, but I'm now contemplating getting my bachelor's in a more common area, and then getting my master's in marine biology. Good Luck!
