My parents are forcing me to go to grad school?

[Anonymous]

I have a degree in biology but the thing is that I don't even like biology and I made terrible grades in undergrad. I made C's and B's. I have one D. I graduated with a 3.0 gpa. Now my parents are forcing me to go to grad school for biology and they are paying for my tuition but I really don't want to go. If I don't go, my parents will basically disown me (they are immigrants of America).

I do want to go to grad school but not for biology. I am scared I will get terrible grades, judging by the grades I received in undergrad. I just don't have the natural propensity for biology. I have to take really hard classes like gross anatomy, physiology, neuroanatomy, etc.

So for a hypothetical situation... If I graduate with a master's in biology, can I apply to a different master's program in a different subject area? Also if I do apply, can I send them only my undergrad transcript and not my master's in Biology transcript?

You are an adult. You have to learn to make your own decisions. Your parents aren't going to agree with every choice you make. If you let them live vicariously through you, you'll end up regretting it later on. Live your life for you not for someone else.
