How can I choose the right subjects when I'm still unsure about my future career?

I'm currently working on my International Diploma and have about two years before I head to college. As I review my curriculum, I’m realizing that my subject choices are starting to have a big impact on my future career options. I’m interested in several areas — biotechnology, social entrepreneurship, international relations, and other life or social sciences. But because these fields are so different, I’m struggling to figure out which subjects will give me the most flexibility and leave the most open doors. To anyone working in these or related fields: Which subjects do you use the most in your career? Are there any you thought would be important but rarely use now? Are there any myths or assumptions people make about your profession that are simply untrue? And most importantly — what part of your career gives you the most satisfaction? Any advice or personal experiences would really help me as I try to find some direction. Thank you so much!
