Answer 1

Even if you were a sophomore in college still trying to decide on a career path, I wouldn't be worried.

Of course, you might run into a problem as an art student looking for a high paying job. Try to talk to anyone who has actually majored in art to get a good idea of what your career prospects are in that area. I have heard, however, that graphic design is a lucrative field in the art area. Getting into a program that has good professors would help to boost your salary, too.

If you are considering medicine, then you need to plan early. You can get into a medical school with a wide variety of undergraduate degrees. Biology is the most popular by far though. Either way, there are at least four science classes you need to take during your first four years of college to get into medical school. These include biology, chemistry, organic chemistry and physics at the very least.

Consider engineering, too. It's not as creative as architecture, but there is room for plenty of design. Also, as an engineering major you might sign an employment contract as early as your second year in college. Medicine and Engineering degrees will undoubtedly lead you to the most stable careers out there.

Last, I wouldn't mind having an email conversation with you. [e-mail]

Answer 2

I think that's what everyone wants - a stable career which will pay all the bills and where you'll have enough left over to enjoy life. Unfortunately, chances are that your career road will be rocky and that you'll have to change it (career, not employer) at least several times throughout your lifetime. For a career in pharmacy or medicine you're looking at at least 6-7 years of university & medical school which can be tough unless you're absolutely convinced that that's something you want to do and are willing to stick with it. If you care for people and like to develop things you could work for a nonprofit organization either locally or abroad; joining the Peace Corps would give you a good idea of what it takes to work in a position like that. Best thing to do would be to narrow your career choices down by talking to your guidance counselor or if you're interested I'd be happy to share my experiences via email.

Answer 3

Seems like you like to draw and develop so why not an architect. Good career with money and name and not boring with many possibilities. Start going to career fairs in your school for further help the sooner you start the better. This gives you a chance to talk to professionals.
