Did anyone else dramatically change careers while in university or college? - September 20th 2014, 12:27 PM
When I was a kid / teenager I wanted to be a vet. This dramatically changed when I got to university because I like the humanities so much (sociology, religion, political science, history and even economics to a certain extent) so I decided that maybe being a vet wasn't the right thing. I turned my sights on careers that would help people - policing, social work, and international relations.... Then I dramatically changed my mind again to do marketing, PR or advertising, which is what I am doing now. I settled here because I can still work for the same places, still make a difference and in a position that's better for my skills.

Did anyone else change their minds a lot like this?

Do you ever worry that you'll get bored of your latest choice and be "stuck" or something?
