I took Law this year because I needed the French credit and to see if I like it, which I don't. I'm passing the course with an 84, but at the same time, I'm bored out of my mind in class! My family keeps encouraging me to not give up on my lawyer dream, but I tried it and I don't like it. Should I try take the course in English next year, just to give it another shot? I feel like maybe there's a reason I wanted to be a lawyer so badly and maybe it's too soon to give up and say I don't like law .. I'm only 16 and I'll most likely have other chances to take Law classes, right?!

My dad told my older sister to be a lawyer, but she didn't listen and went into the IT part of Business. Now she feels unsatisfied with what she has and doesn't want me making the same mistake and ending up like her; always short on money .. She thinks I'll have higher chances of succeeding in the future if I have a well-paid job, and higher chances of getting a high salary if I study law.

I'm worried and just want to make sure that I'm making the right decision and taking the right path..

Law isn't what it once was and people from the older generation and prone to generalisations. Note also that law taught in high school- or in a levels- is boring.

You said you love kids- but have you taught a group of 19-30 kids at a time? Try it.

Your mercury in your third reminds me of my mother's who is also a kiddie teacher. Based on your chart and intuition, being a teacher is a better option but not very lucrative.
