Answer 1

talk to your career counselor at your school. Tell them your interests and they should be able to help you.
Also try getting a intern, volunteer, or part time job workin in the business/finance field now. Then you will have experience and can make up your mind to try something different.

Answer 2

Well this is a common question. Luckily when you study business you don' t have to decide right away.

For example, you start in business where you will do a little bit of accounting, management, economics, business planning etc etc. In 2nd year you will specialise a litlte bit more and you don't really have to make a firm decision until your 3rd year at university.

So aim a business. Take it is as you go. At school and university I was very focused on work that was not very people orientated, but as I matured I have moved into very people orientated careers.

Answer 3

definitely try some work experience in the fields you think you might be interested in. i know it sux to have to go through the whole process of asking for a job and getting paid nothing for a few weeks, but it will definitly help you find out if that job is for you.
sounds like you arent into sales so an office job would be good for you. also you might want to rethink finance - there can be surprisingly little maths involved. these days the computer will do all your calculations for you.
