1. calm down

2. you can't do all of them, so what you should do is pick one to attend, and one to study on your own

3. your posts is pretty over the top, which makes people less likely to take you seriously

4. how is this related to STEM fields?...

I agree with G037H3, calm down.

TYPING LIKE THIS LOOKS LIKE YOU ARE DEMANDING HELP. People won't respond as well.

Just choose what you enjoy most and go for it. Why would waiting 3 months mean interrupting your studies? You could always find out what's involved with the physiotherapy course and start reading up on it. Give yourself a head start! Perhaps that would be the best, it would mean you get 3 months extra learning time. If anything, boosting your studies (assuming you're willing to work).

thanks to both of you..actually I am really tensed. i have my interest in arts but i cannot do it now. i left my university just to join textiles but i could'nt..
my family forced me into medical..i never liked that field but after leaving it i realized that i have developed my interest there..the university which is offering mass comm. is very good and i can enjoy my life as well..but medical has NOW screwed me up..my sister is doing PHARM-D. i feel like i will be complexed when ppl will listen that she ia a pharmacist and I am not related to medical..
i wake up with a new decision daily and that irritatate my family amd my parents are also worried..
i don't have decision power...im such a loser...

 

[G037H3]

if you don't know what to do, go for what will offer you the most flexibility and stability, which is probably something related to the medical field...if you can work a couple of years at that, you will probably have a much more stable job, and from there you can assess whether or not you want to do something else

unless you're 100% sure you want to do something related to arts, then you should go with what will work out best in terms of letting you make flexible choices in the future

sometimes i think to go back to pharmacy but i have some problems there like i live in a hostel,students are very less,mostly are dating and studies are not very good. two of my friends are still there and my family says why can't you do it if they are doing?
there is no flexibility in medical but yeah in mass comm. you need to choose your major subject in 3rd year..mass comm,environmental sciences,literature,biotechnology,sociaology,psycology etc etc..but no medical.
m scared of going to new institute as well because I am very shy and no confidence..
i will have my exams in december of pharm-D and m not well prepared as I am not going since a month..
i have lost my interest in everything...
i cannot decide. i want some angel to come and fix my problem. I am tired now.

 

[G037H3]

Jeez.

You can either decide to do what you're interested in, have your family push you into something you don't want to do, or do nothing and end up in a worse situation than you're in now, going nowhere.

Actually think about what you want. Talk to some of the people that are doing degrees or whatever in the field(s) you're interested in, so you can see if it's something you *really* want to do.

I'm a Deist.

God is impersonal and doesn't care about you until you become capable of talking to them.

And yes, you may just need to do some information collecting.
