Year 12s: what will be the first way you research your future options? >>

Don’t know what I want to do with my life

I’m 18 and just recently dropped out of university as I hated the course with a burning passion. I have no clue what I want to do in life. I feel really lost and think I’m going to end up working in a job I hate for the rest of my life. I’ve tried looking at apprenticeships but none of them are appealing at all (most of them are engineering and childcare). I wouldn’t mind going back to uni to study something I would actually be interested in, but the UCAS deadline and been and I don’t want to rely on Clearing as most of the courses will probably already be full. I have a part time job this now in a supermarket but do not want to go full time this now as I hate being in there.

You are still very young and take your time.

You could apply for ucas next time and also study an Open University degree.

Maybe look at job descriptions to see if various jobs, positions are of interest.
