Is it weird that I haven't changed my mind once about what I want to do?

I'm 17 years old right now. I've been certain of what I wanted to be since I was 13 years old, and I haven't changed my mind once. I've researched many different careers, but I keep coming back to this single one. But most of the people I know my age don't really know what they want to be, or they have many different careers they're considering. Because I was so certain, I've dropped certain subjects like chemistry, which I know is a prerequisite for many different undergraduate courses but not the one I want. I thought, "Why give myself the stress of doing a subject I dislike that I don't need?" But should I have taken it anyway to give myself more opportunities, just in case? Am I being close-minded? Am I rushing into things? Should I stick on the pathway I've decided, or have I like, doomed myself?
