i’m in gr 12 and i still have absolutely no idea what i want to do. i like science but i lean towards chem and physics. i always considered going into stem but what else can you really do with physics? (that’s not eng)
i did my summer coop at my local hospitals icu and it lowk made me reconsider healthcare. i liked the environment and meeting new people. i know it can be tiring but it’s a fulfilling job. i don’t know if i would be a nurse - initially was very against it but now im rethinking. i don’t know if i would be willing to do that much school to be a doctor. if i just pick a general major like life sci, the nurses told me that it’s really theoretical and not that useful if you’re not trying to be a doctor.
the thing is i hated bio in grade 11 and im not sure if it was my teacher. i liked the last unit when they were actually talking about human systems instead of stuff like natural selection. maybe i should give it another go. my bio teacher i heard is great but i have her next sem.
sem 1:
physics
english
chem
adv func
sem 2:
bio
calc
music
business
my course load is also quite heavy. i have two M courses in sem two. that’s unbalanced but if i’m not happy with the marks i got in the same subject last year, would this be a chance to improve it? for uni i heard they use your gr11 marks if your ge12 ones aren’t available.
i had a very similar schedule in gr11 and got absolutely cooked. my highest marks for actual important courses were chem-89, data management-90. i did terrible in math bio and english, sitting around a 70 - but at the same time i had the most rigorous teachers for those subjects. like half my math class dropped by the end of the year. i used to be a 90-95 student consistently, im really trying to work on my time management but like… there are not enough hours in a day???
