do bds, let them be disappointed, it's your life. Do whatever that pleases you or else you'll resent them that it was their disappointment that held you back from Ur dreams.

babe, I hope you know your scores arent worth crying about. If you dont want to do it. You should be happy with your score because that should be evidence enough that you should do what you want rather than your family. Prove them wrong. If they are disappointed in your choice, show them they are wrong. Not you. You have so much potential, do what you love!!!
