What you have preferred and what you would like to prefer? Engineering,Medical(Doctor) or some thing else.

I myself choose Pre-Engineering after I completed my 10th grade.
Reason was that I was too poor in diagrams:p
But the main reason is that I always study on concept and in Biology you have to learn more then developing concept other reason was that I am much good and active in maths then Bio.

Thankfully I completed my 12th grade with good grades and now doing Electric Engineering though my aim was always to become a pilot but this year I missed the due date.:facepalm

I wan to know what PC members have in their mind to be in future and those who are in professional study or had done it what are their past experiences.

Neither fortunately! I share a flat with 2 doctors and I'm quite happy not working ridiculous hours including nights.
Don't even get me started on engineers ;)

I'm looking to go into Aerospace Engineering, It's a 3 or 4 year course and job prospects are promising. Plus, I also get to fulfill my lifelong dream which is to settle down in the US somewhere as the demand for these types of jobs is there.

Good luck with that one mate, sounds like a job that will be challenging, interesting and will pay well to boot!

Engineering was not my cup of tea. I always wanted to do something related to computers that did not involved designing/creating computers. Thats why I went into Computer Science. Eventually ended up doing MIS (Management Information Systems).

In India as an actor/writer/director? Need to have the right connections (not the 'couch' one:p). Also, you have enough backup in place, right?

All the best....

I'm shooting for Medicine. Here in the US we have to complete an undergrad in college first, and i'm thinking Biomedical Engineering. That way, if I don't get into med school I still have a solid degree rather than a Biology degree which you can't really do much with, apart from completing a PhD and teaching, which isn't my thing.

If I don't get into Med School, i'll complete my MBA after college and join Corporate America. It sounds a lot cooler than just being a doctor, but the ability to impact someone's life so greatly, the ability to heal and inspire - it attracts me so much.
