How do I choose what I want to study after high school?
Hello everyone!
I can't seem to decide what to study after high school. I've been thinking about it for quite a long time, but now that the applications are getting closer and many people are already preparing for entrance exams and building up extracurriculars, I'm very nervous about it. It's just difficult to choose!
A little bit about me:
I'm an ambitious student. I have A's from all my subjects and I'm honestly pretty good at maths and physics, however I'm also interested in psychology and people. I'm ambivert and I need something dynamic, repetitiveness drains me out and bores me. I'm quite creative type of person too. I'm very passionate about travelling and meeting people all around the world. I wouldn't mind working remotely. Though I don't like programming and chemistry at all. I also don't wanna be a scientist, it feels quite isolating. I'm also worried about money and employability, I don't want to work for minimal wage or find out that my degree has barely any use after.
Is there any career that would fit me? Thanks a lot in advance!
