Ivelliis,
It's one thing planning a career but try to explore subjects you enjoy or want to find out more about...enthusiasm can take you a long way! Flexibility is also key..i did science A levels ,went to Uni and read chemistry but then worked in investment banking where i met my wife (an oxford grad in mandarin chinese!!)I've since quit the city and now run my own bespoke fine furniture business so who know's what life will bring you ...go for something that you enjoy, work hard and opportunities will come your way. You are an individual and only live once...even large corporates are now looking for people with a variety of experience,travel too, so don't think that by straying from the "usual " path you would be giving up the opportunity to progress in certain careers.I'll stop now before i get too parental !!
Cheers, good luck and have fun ..Cocobolomike
