I'm not sure why I wanted to be a physician back in high school, if in fact I really did. I started college as a pre-med, but quickly gave up after nearly failing organic chemistry and calculus. After sliding through two successful but un-looked-for careers, I went back to school to get credentialed in my second career.

I actually studied mechanical engineering first, for about three years, at the University of Cincinnati. Then I went to a senior design show and thought that the stuff the seniors were showing was cool. I'd never heard of it before, but I liked the sketches and renderings in the show, the artwork part of it. I've always liked drawing, but never really knew what to do with it. I dropped all of my engineering classes the next day and signed up. See similar questions...

No. It is not recommended that you take more than two other courses alongside your field study. Field study is very demanding of your time both logistically and emotionally.
