what are you gonna be? 😱

Advertising executive 😎
or something like a personal shopper 😬I'm so freakin confused bawling
Don't worry about your choices now...What you choose now won't have much of an affect on what you do when you are older...You're only 16 and need to get through college and university first before you can even contemplate a career, so my advice would be choose whatever course you think you would enjoy the most and put thoughts of 'what-to-do-what-to-do' on hold.
If you continue to study law you don't necessarily have to be a lawyer, but law gives you many more options, you could work in some sort of consumer roles where you would have to understand consumer law, or Trading standards (if they have those over there), plus any other career that would benefit from an understanding and qualification in law.
I think if you go down that track you'll have more opportunities and choice of what you want to do.
Originally posted by Morning_GloryWow, that's sooo similar to my list except for point 1 I would replace with be a fireman, point 2 I would replace with become a rich man, point 3 I would replace with be a fire-engine, point 4 I would replace with be a movie star, point 5 I would change to a star and 6 would involve the whip but not the business or men. But other than that my list is almost identical in that it goes from 1 to 6. 😕
I want to be a1.pedatrist
2.marry a rich man and not work

Ive been to a bunch of career fairs and stuff 😛
And I'm pretty sure it is, but since Ive never been one, I can't be certain 😛
I mean, if you knew both sides of the job; cause i.e. archaeologist (sp) sounds fun when you actually do find something, the problem is you'll spend most time trying to find something to dig up...
I took this test thing and had an interview with a career person and it was the most useless thing ever - they told me i was either gonna become:
a farmer!?!?!?!
an air traffic controller
a pilot
a teacher
a social worker
a psychiatrist
I dont want to be any of those, i dont like heights, farms, brats and spending my life listening to other peoples problems doesnt appeal to me either but my friends found it quite funny. I guess your career path is just one of those things you'll stumble across by accident. I go to uni next yr to study history because i couldnt decide on a career path so just chose a subject i like instead.
