Unsure what degree to apply for

Hi, I do Biology, Chemistry and Psychology. I'm applying for uni this year, but I am on the fence on about what, I'm going for law but i'm on the fence because i feel its wrong to be leaving STEM as I've been doing it all my life. The reason I am leaving STEM, is because throughout my A-levels i've realised I am terrible at chemistry and with biology, I am good at the memorisation and understanding process, but weak on the application side & practicals. If anyone could give their opinions, it will be much appreciated.

Hey! I totally get what you mean, I was in a similar situation at the start of Year 12 when I realised I was really struggling with Chemistry, which made me confused about what to do and whether to change my A-levels. I ended up picking a broad selection to keep my options open: Psychology, in case I wanted to do nursing or anything science-related, Economics, for finance and because I genuinely loved it, and English, for law. I also did a lot of work experience in different sectors such as solicitor, data analyst, accounting, investment, and engineering, which helped me figure out what kind of degree and career I actually wanted. In the end, I chose Accounting, Finance & Management because it matched my interests and strengths. So don’t feel guilty about leaving STEM. Being good at memorising and understanding is one thing, but you also need to enjoy it and feel passionate about it. With the uni application deadline coming up in January, it’s worth attending events about law firms, looking at university modules, and talking to professionals or students in the field. At the end of the day, it’s about taking a risk and choosing a path you’ll enjoy rather than sticking with STEM just because it’s what you’ve always done.
