I really dont mean to be arrogant but Im at the point where choosing my classes also means choosing my career path. The arrogant part is that I apparently am good at every class I take. I was planning to take classes in architecture and engineering but medical school is very tempting to go into also. I got letters from both school specified in the fields. Thing is, Im not really interested in anything in particular so which career do you think I should go into?

I was talking about architecture/engineering and med school in particular. I have the choice of either physic classes (engineering) or bio/chem/anatomy/physiology classes (medical). It's either or, doesnt really make sense to take both. Im good at art and am taking calculus as a sophmore so not taking physic seems like a waste. But the A's in chem and bio and the wage for medical career arent so bad either. Stupid dilema.

What are you more interested in? From what I've been seeing, pretty much everything in the medical field is growing so you shouldn't have any trouble getting a job when you're done in school. I don't know where you live, so the architecture and engineering is hard to say....You could go to http://www.assessment.com to take a career test and that may lead you in the right direction. I've been in the same spot you are, so I also went to http://www.salary.com so I know what the salaries are in each of the fields I'm considering. Good luck!

Without a strong interest in any of those fields, you will need to make a decision, and replace passion with determination.
There is a book you can easily and cheaply get on the internet called, "What Color is my Parachute?" It helps people decide what they will do best.
By the way, saying you are good at everything you take is not arrogance, it is vanity. But since it's the truth, it's not an offensive vanity. Arrogance is lack of consideration for others. Good luck with your decision.

Looks like you're very smart in school but insecure of where you want to go in life.

What are you good at? children, numbers, creativity, teaching?
One option is to take a Skills profiler test in the following governmental link:
