Hello,
I have huge respect for your honesty and being vulnerable. I wish I had such a voice at your age. I am a person who used to hate advice!!! Just because it is free, we tend to dispense opinions as advice. I remember my X, Xii std phase where i was constantly bombarded with advice from my neighbors, friends, family, uncle who I have hardly met once in my life, even from a stranger who I met in a train journey. It is wonderful to see you seeking guidance and clarity.
I would like to share my learnings with you, feel free to disregard any that doesn't make sense to you
1. Career choices are not irreversible ( its not carved in stone)
2. Career flexibility is directly proportional to commitments
3. Viewing career options from a finance stand point is a disservice to yourself
4. No body is born with special talent's, You pick up skills and your passion and curiosity helps drive excellence
5. Every expert was once a beginner
I know I did not prescribe next course of action, be open to make your own choices. There are no mistakes there are only learnings. Do anything that makes you feel proud. Does what you do inspire you and inspire others around you?

Hello,
There must be something you like to do or enjoy, not necessarily a subject but it can be a hobby like computers, gaming, sports.
You can think on those lines. There are various courses after Plus 12 available to pursue what you like to do.

Hi I'm glad you are considering options after high school. This a great time to consider job options and necessary skills for those jobs. I would start checking out online job boards and reading those you find the most interesting. Carefully read the requirements and identify those skills you need and do research on programs that will prepare you for those careers. I wish you great success in your journey.

Hello Haya!
You're not alone. A lot of students think they have their career figured out and then suddenly decide that is not what they want to do after all. I changed my major twice while in college. While I eventually majored in Communications, I ended up working in Technical Support instead. What do you really enjoy doing? Maybe you can apply that to the career you eventually want. The good thing about your situation is you still have time to find your path. I hope this helps and good luck!
