Do you ever think about how different life could have been if you made other choices?
For example, you chose to do a course. Like for me what would my life be like if I had completed A Levels or what would my life be like if I chose set 5 science over set 6 science and I have got an additional science GCSE as well as passed science GCSE if I stayed in my original set of set 5 but I let potential bullying affect me and I left the set, possibly for no reason.

Yeah, all the time. My career path dream changed from veterinarian to psychologist on a passing thought I entertained, then committed to. I decided to skip a grade after my IQ evaluation when I was ten. If I didn't skip a grade, I wouldn't have the friends I have now, because I wouldn't have classes with them. Maybe I'd be better at golf because I would have had better teammates. Maybe I would have lower results because I had worse teachers. Going to uni would be way easier because I would be 18. I think everyone realises this. That's why in time travel shows a person making a minor change of plans can stop the world from ending.
I've made a huge number of mistakes throughout my life, and sometimes I wonder what I'd do if I restarted my life. Most often I'd choose to restart from the point in my life when I was the most happy, that being year 6. I'd try to keep in contact with the people I was friends with in that year more.
Then I'd change my attitude throughout secondary school. Less serious, more fun to be around, and hopefully I'd have made more friends then. I wouldn't have ditched the friendship group I had (although that may turn out to be a bad idea), and I would have been more confident and perhaps apply for university sooner.
If I didn't go to university, I probably would have been more receptive to the people I went to college with. I also would have actually gone to the gym, rather than starting it and cancelling my membership a few weeks afterwards having not gone once.
