Would It Affect My Career If I Start Class 11 In 2013?


I am 16 years old, and I passed Class 10 in 2012.
I want to study basic Class 9-10 Physics, Chemistry and Maths properly and a little of the Japanese language in the next 5-6 months, so I want to start Class 11 in an English-medium school in 2013 instead of studying Class 11 books in such a short time.
I have already taken admission in a state board(Council of Higher Secondary Education, Odisha)-affiliated junior college, but the classes just started recently and I don’t think I can study class 11 Physics and Chemistry in more detail without having proper knowledge of class 8/9/10 Physics and Chemistry. Also, the teachers aren’t very proficient in English, and they teach much of the course in Oriya, a language I am the least proficient in. My school removed class 8 books from class 8 and we were taught class 9 books instead. Class 8 books had the basic concepts which were to be taught in class 10, and I didn’t fully comprehend those concepts.
Moreover, I aspire to be a physicist, so I ‘need’ to have proper knowledge of Physics, Chemistry and Maths.
My mom says that it would have drastic consequences if I don’t study class 11 this year, that I won’t get admission in any school in 2013 and that there’s an age-limit for getting admission in a class in a school, going to college/university and getting a job. I secured 66% in Class 10.

What Can I Do During My Gap Year?


I am graduating high school this year but I have decided to take a year off of school between now and college. (I do plan on going to college later on)
I am taking this year to better know what I want to do with my future. The only problem, is I don’t even know what I want to do with the next year of my life!
I love volunteering and helping people. I am creative and artistic. I love theater. I can’t really afford to travel… I mean I am 18 and working a minimum wage job in retail, so keep it realistic. I also am not opposed to anything affiliated with religion, I am a devote Christian so this would even be ideal.
I could just spend my year lazing around, but I want to better my understanding of not only myself, but the world around me.
All suggestions appreciated! Thanks 🙂

How Do I Find Out What My Niche Is?


Or talent? I am 15 living in the UK and I have literally been in tears over what career I am going to have. I know I am still young, but I like to plan ahead. I am planning on going to college to do A-Levels. But where do I go from there? I am a pretty good writer and in my gut I would say I could make a pretty good career out of it (writing screenplays ect.) I am intersected in the world of
showbuisness but recently my heart has been telling me to try acting. Big problem. I am VERY
insecure and shy. And again, I’m 15. And didn’t take drama as a GCSE option or anything! What if I go to an acting class and everyone there is younger and better than me? I feel like my chance has
gone:/ I love to put on a show for my friends and they all love it! I’m just so confused, I want a
clear idea of what I want to do for a career but I just can’t fathom it! If you took the time to read this whole essay of a question, thankyou for your time and answer:)

How Bad Is It To Be A Jack Of All Trades, Master Of None?


Will it be difficult for me later in life if I have such a broad way of looking at life, to the point that I do not specialize in anything? My dream career is to be an artist. I would willingly try any medium; visual, music, literature, video games! But I always thought that to be an artist, you need to have a sincere fascination with the things of the world, and I cannot imagine doing that, if I am not open to any point of view, every walk of life. I would be the type to write about things I’ve never experienced.
But people would tell me, and I am worried myself, that I need to specialize in something or else I wouldn’t really have much value to give to the world. Like if I need to be hired, what would they need in me, that’s so unique or unfounded, to hire me?
Is it really worth it to scale yourself down? I can aim as high as I want and at the same time swear to myself that I would never get disappointed because I realistically accept that it might not come true. I don’t care. I am just happy anyway that THAT is not the only view to life. I guess I can take a day job. I do want to have my own name and be employed based on that. I don’t know. I’m only 16. But in my country, I’m a senior already and going to college next year.
So is it really bad not to specialize in anything? Will I not have a name by not having a niche?
