Dropping out of math and science--it's still an all-too-common pattern for teenage girls and the results can be disastrous. Without training in these areas, 85% of the most prestigious and lucrative careers--those in science and the applied sciences--become inaccessible. Featuring advice and inspiration from five women scientists, this video encourages girls at the secondary level to continue their studies in math and science and provides the facts they need to make an informed choice about the future.
