I have a B.S. in Psychology and a B.S. in Criminal Justice. I wound up going to law school and graduate from that this May. Then I have to take the bar exam this summer.

I plan on going into law and politics.

However, at the moment, I am still a few years from college, but I am in accelerated courses, and plan to go into as many AP classes I can. Sure, it may end up killing me, but if it doesn't... well, I'm sure you know the saying.
Make sure you are absolutely 100% sure you want to go to law school. Its too tough, expensive, focused, and time-consuming unless you are completely positive its what you want.

If you are sure, I recommend majoring in English when you get to college. Law school admissions people LOVE English majors.

Ah well, I'm a bit too old for that now. In college it's not about doing the stuff right and knowing how it's done right, but how your lecturer wants you to do it.
That's true. You really can't go against the philosophy they believe in can you? Oh well, it's usually easy to fake you follow it as well.

Plan on getting a bachelors in Computer Science or if that doesn't work out, going into graphic design or something. Anything with computers really.

It's not for me. During my first try at university one of my lecturers was a complete idiot, teaching us wrong stuff, but expecting it to be correct in the exams... Shit like that drives me nuts.

Dad was a bit like that at uni, hence why he advised me against speaking out against your lecturers. Most of them you don't need to anyway, because they're pretty good.

Well I am currently on a bachelors degree of Medicine and Surgery. Got 4 more years to finish up and then it's off to do a residency at a hospital. I haven't really picked up a specialization yet but I am leaning towards infectious diseases.

I just gave up, cause most of my lecturers are something between autistic and braindamaged. "most" means, I've met two out of 34 who are strange, but socially acceptable normal.

Choose philosophy, you won't regret it.

I'm at college right now doing philosophy, film and English literature. Just had an offer to do a degree in philosophy from a university that is apparently 11th in the UK, which is more than I was ever expecting!

Lol, at least you're quite chipper about it
I wouldn't call it chipper, more like indifferent.
If I don't laugh about it, I'd cry about it.

And I can never cry while Max [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/profiles/view/MaxTheReaper] stands behind me with that knife. He'll never let me live it down.

Plus he would totally derail my train of thought...

I graduated from university in the US almost a year ago (majored in Japanese, minored in Psychology), and right now I'm working in Japan. My contract's only until July though, and since (a) I still don't know what I want to do with my life and (b) the economy's in the crapper, no matter what I try next I'll probably still end up having to bum off of my parents again.
