PLEASE help me as i only have a few weeks left

My interests are in design and computers and physics n mathes r really strong subjects of mine. i want a career where i can use my knowledge an earn well

thanks

Virtually all engineering involves maths physics and computers but electronic or systems engineering are probably the most computer orientated (except for the ones with computers in the title).
The main reasons for going into engineering rather than purely maths or physics are the job prospects (you are almost guarenteed a job at the end) and that the knowledge is applied to situations. It just depends what you like.
Almost all engineers can earn a good amount of money and if you do an MEng rather than a BEng it is pretty easy to gain chartered engineer status which makes you much more employable. :smile:

firstly, relax its not the end of the world if you change your mind as you can always swap courses if you get good grades. out of what you've mentioned there has to be a subject that you REALLY want to do more than the others because of the interest and id say go with that because physics, engineering and maths jobs are all well paid anyway :smile: I was stuck between choosing sports science or psychology and although sports would probably be easier for me to get a job in because of the experience ive had etc i chose psychology purely out of INTEREST.

just try and think realisticly about the future when deciding and make sure it suits your interests

Computer Science? Software Engineering? Try a general engineering course, you can specialise after you try your hand at a bit of everything.
