Joe, if you don’t want to be a premed…then don’t be a premed. It’s a tough road, thats for sure, so it’s great that you’re not planning to enter into this lightly. It’s going to be tough for someone on this board to help you figure out what your ideal job is. What you need to do is figure out what you like–seems like you’re working on that–and then start studying it. You listed plenty of interests that should lead you to a great bachelors degree eventually, and you’re well on your way if you’ll graduate from high school with an associates. Thats really impressive! I don’t know any highschoolers who have done that. Determine something you’re interested in, pursue that for awhile, and if its leading nowhere…switch majors. People do it all the time. No ones expecting a high school senior to know what he wants to do with the rest of his life. Try to relax and enjoy senior year! You’ll have plenty of time to stress out about the rest of your life when the time comes :)
