Question Posted Thursday January 18 2007, 8:50 pm

Ok well I went to this carreer choosing site and like all my jobs are in the same areas and when I looked at education, every job needs the exact same classes. Only, all those classes (the extra electives) are my worst subjects and subjects that I hate. I don't want to pick those classes and just pick classes that I like but thsi is high school and you're supposed to pick school courses that will help you get to your job. But picking those classes i am possitive that i'd fail them and not pass high school. what should i do?

It doesn't matter what classes you take in high school. All you have to do is graduate. The better you do in high school, the better college you can get into. The funny thing is that it doesn't really matter what classes you take in college either. For now at least, take the classes that you will do well in.

Career quizzes and the like are often wrong. Don't trust them. Trust yourself.

Good luck!

If you like the sound of these particular jobs, you may want to do a bit more research. Why? If you dislike or hate all the subject areas needed to be successful in these areas, you're probably setting yourself up for a job you also will not like.

Subject areas are usually closely related to the work itself - not to mention the classes you would have to take at university.

For example, if someone thinks it would be cool to be a scientist but hated math and science, they would not be making choices that were well suited to them.

You want to study things that are you well suited to, that you enjoy, and that you would like to learn more about. The subjects you choose in high school will not actually make a huge difference to you - your specialisms at university will. Right now, you should be focusing on figuring out what you enjoy and making good grades.

That'll enable you to go to a good university and make more informed decisions when you arrive! Best of luck.

Take those classes and try extra hard to do good in them. There really isn't another way to go about it, I wish I could give you a shortcut buttons but that's your first lession in adult life. There are no buttons.
