I'm not passionate enough about any major :(

i have always been the smart kid in the class, i didn't study hard because i "liked" that subject, i just wanted good grades or maybe i had a good teacher and loved her. i remember when i was in 5th grade, i was the best at literature because i loved the teacher and she would teach really well. i have always wanted to be the best at everything and i have always wanted to go to a good uni, but now that it's time to choose the major, i have no idea what to do. i see people who are literally passionate about what they study, but i'm sad that i'm not. i really want to go to college. but what if i'm gonna hate it? like sometimes i hated physics at high school but i would get the best grade. i know i'm good at learning. but what should i choose? i don't know what i would like to do as a job either, even though i have thought about it. A LOT.
i know i like something that challenges my brain more, i don't like memorising things. i sometimes like chemistry, sometimes biology, sometimes math ( rarely).. i'm just confused.
also i live in a country where i don't have an opportunity to try different jobs..

Look at a range of different STEM subjects - Biosciences, Pharmacology, Pharmacy, Chemistry, Environmental Science, etc etc, and if you are expecting high grades, there is a 'combination science' degree called Natural Sciences which allows you to study a variety of STEM subjects together, and the connections between them. Or, there is Law, which requires no specific A level subjects.

Examples :
School of Biological Sciences | University of Southampton
Choosing between Pharmacy and Pharmacology (bath.ac.uk)
Undergraduate - Department of Chemistry, University of York
Natural Sciences - Lancaster University
Course Search | University of Leeds
