I actually started out in Commerce, and within the first 2 - 3 weeks had switched over all of my courses to shadow Life Sciences instead. First year Commerce does not involve any real commerce courses and I found that my experiences with the Faculty, albeit positive, were not what I was seeking from my education. There was less of the rigorous challenge that is typically associated with the scientific method and scientific problem solving, and I did not feel as engaged or fulfilled. I have made several moves within the Faculty of Science itself, but I have never regretted the transfer.
