Science is hard -Studying science is not easy for anyone. People who become scientists do not do so, because it is easy, or they have a ‘knack for it.’ As shown in the table below, many scientists struggle with understanding math; are dyslexic; are on the autism spectrum; or have a physical disability. Despite these difficulties, they still chose to become scientists. People become scientists because they like the challenge; they understand that all successes require a long journey with many failures; and they have a burning desire to know: 1) how and why things are the way they are; 2) if things have always been that way; and 3) if they will continue to be that way in the future.
