Hi! Deciding what career path to go into can be tricky, but you"ll get it! When finding a career path, it is important to try and find something that interests you. Doing research and asking counselors can help guide you in the right direction. It took me a while to find my career path. I am 22 and I have just now found my career path. You have all kinds of time to explore different opportunities! Take your time and explore. Whatever you choose in the future, you will do great!

My recommendation would be to go to community college and figure out what you want to do. A lot of science classes at the community colleges and other colleges specifically a lot of the science classes have labs where there are field trips in the lab classes. Also, you can look into study abroad programs where you take classes for college credit and there's a lot of travel opportunities there.

You're already ahead of the game by thinking about what topics excite and come naturally to you. Focus on your strengths vs. your weaknesses. Whether it's an interesting art class or math teacher who makes everything "click," start asking if they know of any clubs or free online classes to learn more in those areas. There's also summer camps and internships where you'll start to meet people in those fields.
