Hello, I don’t know what career to choose. I’m a graduating Gr 12 student. I’m interested in subjects involves thinking, such as physics and philosophy. I naturally hate courses that need memorization, such as biology and history.(Although I like the critical thinking and reflection part of history. you learn lessons from others’ life!) I’m a straight-A student. good at math, programming, and science. okay with English, not strong though.

I’m debating between a engineering degree or a double degree liberal arts and science. I really don’t know what I’m going to do in the future. I will value humanity in my job. I don’t want to be treated as a commodity doing technical jobs alone in the lab. That’s too tedious. I like to make changes to the society, to people’s life. I also want to take social science and humanity courses in university. So pursuing engineering will really hinder my pursuit of these aspects.

Can anyone give me some advice?
