A lot of people ask this question, and every time, it is a really difficult question to answer.

Basically, there are a lot of degrees and career paths you can choose from A levels. You can go for straight subjects such as a maths degree or history degree. Or even joint degrees where you have two subjects such as Maths and Economics. You could even have one subject combined with a completely new subject such as History and English for example. There are many combinations to choose from, so decide which subject you see yourself specialising in.

As for the careers? Oh my gosh! Absolutely endless possibilities, dude! :biggrin: There is so much out there, there's even careers you never even heard of or knew about! Just because you decide on one career path now doesn't necessarily mean you will feel the same way about that job after you finish university. From A levels to University is sort of like a crucial time period of your education and life because it's the time span in which you decide what you want to do with your life. It can be both exciting and unnerving at the same time, but have fun with it!

Nothing's definite, and the majority of the time, you will be changing your mind because the world offers many opportunities. Always look into the things you enjoy doing. Everyone advises that, and it's advice worth taking.

To be honest, I wouldn't worry too much about the career bit at the moment. Try and find a degree/course you see yourself doing because you love. And then from there, you'll find your way.

Good luck and take care! :smile:
Finance maybe
