Choosing a degree and a career path is not as easy as it seems – but it is important to get right. If you’ve ended up choosing a degree which doesn’t really suit you, there’s a risk that you’ll end up dropping out, underperforming, or simply unhappy.
Remember it’s okay to change directions and move to another course. This isn’t a failure – but continuing to study a subject you are not interested in certainly is. That will lead to nothing except frustration and wasted time. Not sure if you’ve chosen the right subject? See how many of these signs apply to you…

Yes, you try to be punctual. You show determination and you try to give your best shot, but something isn’t right. You are sitting in the lecture, but the words coming out of your professor’s mouth are not making any sense. Actually, they aren’t even registering in your head. You are perhaps thinking of what to do later in the day or watching funny video clips. While every student loses focus some of the time, if this is your usual experience, then you’re not in the right place.
