Pharmacy is my current goal but I wouldn't mind law or politics either.

LOL nice. Any idea what subject(s)?

I want to be a Civil Engineer :D

Previously thought of being a Forensic Scientist, Food Technologists and Mechanical/Electrical Engineering :)
LOL like anna did, I wanted to be a forensic anthropologist or forensic pathologist before (sometimes I actually still do~). But anna what made you decide not to become a forensic scientist? (Oh and btw, congratulations for getting that awesome ATAR anna!!! ^^) Currently I either want to become a brain surgeon (but apparently you need a high ATAR and years of study in uni...), a neurologist, prosecutor, dentist, pharmacist or a psychologist~ So I'll probably pursue a degree in law or medicine after my HSC~

Probably architecture or something in diplomacy, like in DFAT.

Was thinking of stuff like psychology and philosophy before this.

I hate the word career. It just sounds so unnatural to me. But what I would like to do is health science, either physiotherapy, occupational therapy or nursing. When I'm in Year 12 I might put medicine down in my preferences to, just to see if I get in, because I wouldn't mind being a GP either.

Does anyone else here have a back-up job they will do if they get sick of uni or the HSC/decide not to go to uni? I do...veterinary nursing. The training is two TAFE courses: Certificate II in Animal Studies (6 months FT) and Certificate IV in Veterinary Nursing (1 year FT) - the Cert IV requires that you be employed in an animal husbandry business, e.g. veterinary practice, and the same is recommended for the Cert II although it is not a requirement.

Is it just me or are there careers that don't require university study, lol? Everyone seems so set on the HSC and uni these days ... but there are well-paid, rewarding jobs out there that don't require either. And I'm not talking about being an enterpreneur (ie starting your own business).

:wave: Heyys! Good Luck to future HSCers.

Wow, the thought of me in two years time is kinda scaring me, besides the fact that i'm gonna age , ugghh gonna miss those kiddy years :( Anyone on the same chain of thoughts as me?

Well, i've always wanted to be part of the medicine- obstetrician team [deeply inspired by bosco in tvb moonlight resonance] but i'm pretty hopeless in science, so if i don't make it then probably accounting or teaching maths or history. :p

Yeah, the fact that we're all growing up so fast is scaring me too. Last thing I remember, I was all nervous about the first day in Year 7. And now, I'm starting Year 11. It's terrifying.

Heys, I want to be an obstetrician too! :)

I've ALWAYS had a desire to do law, but only recently have my ideas wavered...

I guess I'll end up heading towards journalism or something of that nature (vast majority of my family are in the media), but idk.

Politics has always been an option...
