I already struggled to pick between A Levels and a college course at the time, but I decided 2 years ago to try college. Unfortunately, the coronavirus has severely disrupted my course and despite probably getting a pass on the course and getting my qualification, I don’t feel like i have learnt really the skills needed for the job path I was heading for, which was something in the beauty industry. But this brings me to another problem- I was never really sure if that’s what I wanted to do. Don’t get me wrong, I have enjoyed the course and I would be tempted to continue up to the next level to get further in the course.
I always wanted to be a psychologist since I was younger, and lately I’ve been really tempted to try A Levels to follow the pathway to become a psychologist (Id probably pick psychology, biology and maybe something like sociology or criminology). Another reason for this is because I feel like doing beauty isn’t really pushing me hard enough, I find it quite easy and not really challenging and I never feel like I’ve been rewarded when finishing a topic or something because I didn’t have to try, and I do like the feeling of working hard to success. On the other hand, I’m crap at handling stress and huge workloads and I think that A Levels might make me crumble.
It’s a dilemma because both have pros and cons and I can’t decide between the two. Continue with the course I’m doing now, even though I’m kinda unsure on if I really want to be a beautician and I don’t really have the skill set because of rona, or try something completely different that might turn out more stressful even though it was something I’ve thought about for a while?
Grrrrr I just wanted to see if other people had ever had a similar problem or what other people think would work out best, feel free to ask me any questions and that
