so i'm a senior in high school, getting ready to apply for college.
i am a very strong student, straight A's, AP classes, involved in clubs, and varsity cross country and track. i say this to prove i have both a strong mind and body.

i've always wanted to be a doctor, and i think it would be a good fit for me. i've got a knack for problem solving and enjoy science. i love helping others, and i think i could be successful doing it.....however i've been think about myself lately. and silly as it may sound, i have a passion for the law. in my heart, i feel very strongly towards upholding and enforcing the law. criminals anger/frustrate me, and i would definately enjoy catching the bad guys and providing justice to those who deserve it.
so i was thinking about maybe not majoring in pre-med and possibly pursuing my heart's dream of law.
except i don't know where to go from here. major in criminology or criminal justice or pre-law?
i don't want to be a cop, i fear i'm not tough enough looking or acting. but i do have an interest in the FBI, i would enjoy using my problem solving skills to plot and scheme to track down criminal rings/masterminds.....but how do i go about pursuing this?
what area of law enforcement should i try?
FBI? prosecuter? investigator?
sorry it's so long, but i have a lot on my mind.....

i also have taken 6 years of spanish if that could help me out at all
