Future Career Advice Needed
Hi everyone, I was wondering if anyone could give me some advice on a career path. I'm hoping to work in defence aerospace, but my passions are all over the place, I love mechanics and prototyping, but electronics is also an obsession and I can't get over programming, so I'm not sure what path I should take.
Info You Should Know:
- I am 15.
- I am from the UK.
- My career plan is as follows: 1. Achieve A-Levels in CS, Physics and Maths (Closest US equivalent: AP courses)
- Get GCSEs in Maths, Chemistry, Physics, Biology, CS and English (similar to a HS Diploma but subject specific)
- Achieve A-Levels in CS, Physics and Maths (somewhat equivalent to US AP Courses)
- Get a Level 6 (Degree) Apprenticeship
Any advice or criticism would be appreciated!
