I'm going to be going to the U of A (Arizona) soon and I can't decide on a major yet and I was hoping for a little insight. My two choices are Physiology or Physics. I took both classes and LOVED both of them. Physiology came to be much more naturally (it seemed to be incredibly easier to me) I finished number one in my class and I was so interested in it I decided I wanted to be a doctor. IN physics I really liked that I could change the variables int the equations and be creative and explore the theories and stuff, but it didn't come to me as easy. At the U of A, there is a Physiology Major, but unfortunately, Physiology majors don't get accepted to med schools as much as physics majors do so I was wondering if anyone could give me some insight into this matter... Physics or Physiology...I like both, I can major in either, but Physiology doesn't have as high of an acceptance rate. thanks

I got this thought...and I figured it would be worth asking about.... Here on Earth we have gravitational acceleration because of the amount of gravitational pull on us and the distance from it's center of mass and the speed we are moving at relative to Earth (cuz we'd shoot off the planet if we move fast enough). Now I'm going to assume that this is true for all objects that have mass and therefore a gravitational pull. If a black hole is massive enough to pull in light, and a gravitational pull creates acceleration when you get close enough to the object, would a black hole cause light to speed up when it's "sucking in" light? Could it make light go faster than the ~300,000m/s? or does particles being sucked into a black hole have a sort of terminal velocity like they do for a falling object here on Earth? thanks
