The idea of those sorts of things is to present you with some ideas based on what your interests and aptitudes are. So it's likely that whatever is suggested may appeal to you - in which case, fair enough! But do bear in mind that career testing isn't an exact science... some things it suggests just might not appeal to you at all - in which case, don't do them!
I think overall, career testing can be helpful if you aren't sure what path you want to take in life; but it's a tool to help you, not a dictate you have to follow. Above all else, if you aren't sure what you want to do in life, I'd suggest trying to keep your options open a bit, so that you can specialise later on when you know yourself a bit better (i.e. pick some subjects that can be useful in a variety of settings rather than ones which are very specialised). And remember that you're the one who'll be doing the studying, so pick things you'll enjoy and find rewarding.
Enjoy your studies, and good luck finding your path!

That will depend on if you are interested at all in that subject.But also any of the careers that course/subject requires.Because any college course will be alot of hard work.So it will help big time,if you go for something YOU like/want.Not something just because it was suggested you should.Good luck!
