Most people who argue against the scientific consensus on scientific topics tend to be ignorant on what makes science one of the best (if not the best) methods to attain knowledge about how the world works.
Key words to consider while studying: peer review process, credible journals, replicability, falsifiability, pseudoscience vs. science, and theory in the scientific sense.
I appreciate the advice, and I am sincere, but I think I already know how science works. I have tremendous respect for the scientific method as it has led to the advancement of humanity. But one key thing about science that you left out is that the advancements are always made starting with disagreement in the evidence. Then you carefully weigh the evidence and accept the theory that best explains the evidence. Most of what I have seen on this page is me trying to lay out the evidences that lead me to conclude design, and other people telling me that I need to go back and study it again. No one is really presenting evidence.
Even if no evidence has been presented here, the evidence you're after has already been presented in the papers that you, as an aspiring biology researcher, should be reading. Do you not see that mere disagreement and questioning does not mean a damn thing when the majority of biologists accept the validity of evolution as a really good theory? Peer review is something you'll have to deal with a lot later in your career.
And what kind of university are you studying at? You will not have the best future as a biologist if you keep insisting evolution is not the best theory of the relationships between organisms ... unless you actually come up with a much better theory than the one currently accepted, that is.
