Conflicted on whether i should do classics at a good university or finance and accounting at mid university ?
Im resitting my alevels in math and economics, with classics as a new alevel, i previously failed physics, honestly i would really enjoy classics but it clashes with expectations, its unconventional to my parents, who’s approval i would need to gain, but F&A is vocational and straightforward, but i would only apply to mid tier Russel groups, compared to applying to classics at ucl, kcl- even though i am a resit student. Any advice?

Electrical Engineering and digital nomad friendly jobs?
Hello. I am currently on my third gap year. Which I am very ashamed of but unfortunately I had health issues. I applied to Architecture but if I don’t get in I must have a plan B since Architecture is limited number. I’d like to do a fully remote job in the future because I want to live in Thailand. My main passion is Architecture but if I don’t get in I am thinking about Industrial Design or Electrical Engineering. I am thinking more about Electrical Engineering because I enjoy physics but my main worry is that it’s not digital nomad friendly. I also like Industrial Design because i’d like to get creative as well but I am scared that I will be unemployed though it’s the most remote friendly because of UX design etc. What should I do? I will be 22 this year and I want a safe path that wont force me to get another bachelor or master’s degree. I studied Computer Science for a few months but I hated coding though it was the most remotely friendly. Is it possible to get entry level jobs completely remotely with Electrical Engineering degree? I live in the Netherlands but I am not dutch
What are the best jobs for an INFP-T?
I don't have parental pressure but I do. They say I can be whatever I want but it would be nice if I was a doctor. I don't hate people, but I do hate people that are disrespectful towards me. I'm not a hard worker if I don't need to be, but when I know I need to work hard for something, I put everything into it. Medicine is not my main focus, but nothing is. Everything is dull, and all subjects are the same, I don't favor anything!

Should I continue doing extracurriculars/sports I don't love anymore since they will make my college application look better?
I'm a junior, and I'm not as interested in some of my extracurriculars as I used to be. I feel like I'm only doing them because I don't want to quit when I'll be applying to college next year, but they're also making it harder to find time for the things I enjoy. My parents cautioned me against quitting, because it would make my college application appear less impressive, but l'm not sure if I want to spend my time doing things I don't enjoy anymore just so I can appear impressive to colleges. What should I do?
