UCAS form actually, fool.
I can't wait to get back my Statistics GCSE!
Wow my whole future depends on it!

Good advice. What sort of career are you planning?
Unfortunately archeology is one of those things where you can't get stinking rich doing something you enjoy unless you discovered aliens at a dig. If it's something you really want to do, and see yourself enjoying later on in life (after the honeymoon period where everything is great), and the money's good enough to get by, then go for it.
There are tons of scientists with the same dilemma; doing something they love but getting paid peanuts until they're heading up a research team. By which time they would have grown a beard, lady or not.
Unless you've signed a do-or-die death pact, your future is largely undecided and can be changed at any time. Don't think that because you've picked a set of subjects or a degree, that you have to follow it through as a profession. And remember, the forces aren't fussed to what you choose, and you can do it after your degree for most branches.

Hm, doesn't sound too promising. I hadn't really thought of it seriously until this afternoon. My best subject is history really, but I don't want to teach.
I'd thought about archaeology as well, but I did some work experience and the people all told me the pay was pisspoor. Plus, I can't watch Time Team without getting bored. Bascially my largest reason for archaeology was working in a foreign country. I'd like to do something that takes me to a lot of different places. I don't know really, but I wish I did, I have to decide a good part of my future in the next two weeks.

My legs hurt so much right now. And my shoulders too.
Cheers FLCL! Hopefully that A in Surfing will be put to good use soon.
RoJ, I was in the same boat too after Biggles went on about it. But then I met a few who were applying and they were so sure of themselves and the occupation, I thought twice. When the reply to, "Have you considered the Army instead?" were comments like "The Army isn't up to scratch compared to the RAF" and "our uniform is better", I was put off for good. On top of that, the branch I was going to apply for were already full on successful applicants who were waiting a place.
Plus my current job is going so well, it would be a huge risk to change paths all of a sudden.

Biggles. You had a job in the RAF didn't you? I am slightly interested in joining a career there.
C'mon the Gers!
well done on your A-level results Icarus :)
