Really...I would be researching what's available and then make a decision on what appeals to you. If you can't be bothered doing that you're not likely to finish any course you start!

I think maybe you need to look at what interests you or things you already know stuff about and reserach what would be involved with the degree, what elements you will be studying. Also see what type of career this will lead to and how you feel about it. Unis are pretty cool places now and if you choose something then decide it's not for you after a few months you can change to something else. Like I said just research all the options well and choose one. If it's not right, change it! Whatever you decide to do good luck and remember that uni is supposed to be fun as well and you will meet loads of new people to support you.

What you love might be a bit lame, but you should be interested in your subject. You are going to spend the next 3 - 4 years reading and writing about it.
You rightly point out that, just because you are interested in a subject, does not mean that you will be able to earn a living (There are no end of Astro Physicist claiming benefit).
Business is good, or business economics. You might also try looking at a composite degree (Look in your UCAS book).
Law will always make you money, but does the world need another American Lawyer?
IT is still a growing field, but you will need good maths for this.
You might, if you are going to work in America, need to consider if you will need to do top up qualifications (Especially if studying law) before you can practice in the US.
End of the day, it is your choice, but IT might be the most universally useful.

Honestly take some time to do some soul searching about your career. Don't necessarily think about the $$$$, because money will not make you happy. It may solve some problems, but if you do not picture yourself really enjoying what you do for a living, the money will not help unhappiness. You are only 16 years old, and have some time. I would focus on your science and math classes, because that seems like your passion. Discuss your test anxiety with your teacher, and see if there's something you could do for extra credit. I fyour teacher believes in your ability, they will want to help you. Keep in mind that although you could become something great like a pharmacist, college can be very, very expensive, especially going on to graduate school after getting your undergrad. Meditate on everything, and talk with your folks and counselors. Good luck.

If you have a specific career in mind, then do an occupational degree that will help you get there - for example, you have to do teaching if you want to be a teacher.
If you have no idea what you want to do, go for a general degree. If you want to be office based and in business, go for Business Studies. If you want to work in a caring career, go for social care. You don't need degrees for these careers, but it's a good start and makes it easier to get in.
If you really don't have a clue, go for a general degree such as Literature or Media Studies. Having a degree in any discipline shows that you are capable of working under pressure, handling a heavy work load and have the ability to learn at a higher level.

If at all possible i would take a year out and do some travel it is not really expensive cos you can pick up work as you go. By the time you have finished travelling you might have decided what you want to be or you might decide to settle in one of the countries that you visit

To be honest, I wouldn't take anybody's advice but your own. I was pushed into Higher Education and regret every month I wasted. I now run my own building firm and wish I hadn't wasted those two years before I quit. I'm still paying for my student loan and wouldn't have gone if I'd had the option. What do you enjoy? What kind of field do you want to work in? Play to your strengths, you have to enjoy what you're planning to study or it will be a nightmare. Believe me I know.
Good luck

If u ask me what career will give u much money, i don't have the answer.
But, as long as i can say is . .
U can and u will get much money not depending on what career u pursue. Whatever career u pursue, if u make the best of ur job, u'll be successful. In other hand, if u have the best career or major in town but u don't make the best of it, it won't give u even a buck.
How to make the best of ur major is by finding ur preferences/talent/hobbies

You need to review some important considerations.
Which classes did you like and dislike? math, chemistry, biology, english, history? Did you like more hands-on things like auto class or shop class? What do you think you are good at? What kind of marks did you get(which were the best or worst), do you like studying and thinking or do you prefer to get straight to something more physical?, did you take advanced stream or standard stream classes?
