I am extremely interested in Dinosaurs and evolution and would like a job in that area in the future, but I can't remember what it is called and what I would need to study or what university to go to to get this job.
Can anyone help?

Hi, Princess-IMYM!

Perhaps you're thinking of a career as a paleontologist? Please click on the following link.

Paleontologist Definition - Google Search (http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&safe=off&ei=FQyVSq2ADMqwtgfx_J1I&sa=X&oi=spell&resnum=0&ct=result&cd=1&q=Paleontologist+Definition&spell=1)

Also, what level of schooling/education have you already had, please?

Thanks!

Yes that's it! =D

I have just finished my GCSE year in high school, I'm going to carry on to the next level of education, and hope to go to university, but I honestly don't know what subjects I should study in the upcoming years to become a Paleontologist.

I don't know, I have two years to decide, and that's why I started this thread, I just don't know what Im supposed to do.

Hi again, Princess-IMYM!

Do you have any travel limitations as to where you might go to school? For instance, I live in Illinois. I wouldn't want to attend a school in California, if there was a school in Illinois that offered what I wanted and was also very good at teaching what I wanted as far as schooling.

Thanks!

Well I live in England UK, in a small village in the northeast, I can get a bus to a train station that's in the next town over, it could be considered a limitation I suppose, but if I were offered a great place in a university miles away I would probably find a place to move to, if it was what I wanted.
