Hey, I'm 16, female, and I can't really choose what I want to do in life. I have many things I would like to do, but don't know which one I want more. I like helping people, so I thought maybe a social worker or a counsler. But what I really like is watching shows on homes, such as House hunters, and Flip that house. So I was thinking Real Estate or interior design, or both. But I can't draw to save my life. For this kind of work do you need to know how to draw? And what kind of schools and I look into for real estate or/and interior design? Thank you!
Does Youngstown State University in Ohio do those kind of classes?

have you thought about architecture? its what im going for. dont worry about the drawing stuff. i cant draw a cat for my life but im talented in mechanical and architectural drawing. you're helping people get their dream homes. with the drawing, everything you do involves a ruler or some sort of guide tool so as long as you have a good imagination and the ability to come up with new designs then you'll be find. here's something i've noticed though: with architecture, technical schools like RPI (Renselear Polytech Institute) look more at your academics and grades where an art school like Rhode Island School of Design (RISD) will look more at your creativity and artistic ability.
if this isn't what you're interested in then interior design is more on the artsy end of the trade. you'd most likely be going to an art school.
real estate is more into business and sales. depending on where you work you can get some big bucks$$$$. especially in new york city...or any city really.
