Default Future Career... (UK)
Right now i'm in college doing my A levels for Biology, Chemistry and Physics and judging by the way things are going, it's possible i'll come out with a B for Biology, C for Chemistry and a C for Physics. Now these kind of grades would be enough to pick from a range of courses at Uni, but at the moment, I don't know whether I really want to go to University. After having a serious talk with my parents last night, my mind has changed completely.

Right now, i've applied for only two Uni's, which are Northumbria and Sheffield Hallam to do Biology, but in honesty, I don't know why I've even applied for doing so. I do somewhat enjoy doing science subjects (not physics to be honest), but there is nothing that takes my interest as a career if I did intend to study a science for another 3 years. The idea of landing myself into about £10k+ of debt afterwards isn't exactly that tempting either if I have no idea what to do with a degree.

So right now, i'm somewhat having ideas of possibly taking a gap year (could be useful or it could be a complete waste of a year) or finding a job after college. At the moment, i'm forever finding it very hard to concentrate with my work to get my coursework and homework done on time. I'm starting to think whether i've got to the stage i'm actually fed up with education now.

Damn, I feel i'm in a complete mess because I have jack ideas on what to do in future as a career. [surrender] All I want to do in future is earn enough money and have a good time with my life, but i'm completely unsure how to go about doing it. I've spoken to several advisors in the past, but sometimes I somewhat feel i'm wasting my time. [no]
