I'm thinking of getting back into education. I know it's the right choice but I thought I would see what all of you think.
I'm not happy with my current role. Technically I am an interim building manager, because I generally work alone and my role is geared towards the upkeep of properties, rather than providing an array of services for residents. Though most people tend to go "Ahhh!" when I describe the role.
Anyway moving on. I have a strong dislike for the role and have always believed to go on to become a police officer once the met begin recruiting again. Unfortunately that doesn't look like it will be happeneing for the next few years. So I though of getting back into education and studying to further progress my future career.
This is where the trouble starts. My girlfriend reignited my ambitions, saying "Why not study physics?" This threw me.
My intentions never were to leave my academic career entirely, but merely to pause until I had a place in the met police. I was stubborn, so I kept applying. All that time spent doing nothing for myself! Now I'm in the postion where u can't afford to give up work but I'm yearning to fulfil my dreams.
So should I take the safe bet and pickup where I left off, take my A levels in psychology, sociology and something else I haven't yet decided upon? Or should I start from scratch, retake my math and science gcse and get the A's I promised myself; then carry on to take math physics and psychology (personal interest) at A level? I know it's a great feat to achieve, especially because I'll be an adult student. But this is what I have always dreamed of. And now I'm torn.
I was always allowed to make my own decisions in life. From an early age I picked my schools, what I studied, ect. And they all turned out to be bad decisions. But this matters far to much. What if I make another mistake and waste another decade of my life when u should be concentrating on my career?
Advice please. Be brutal! You're talking to an idiot who needs a slap in the face.
