Now able to decide speciality for part 1

Not*

I am going through a very tense situation and I would really appreciate some advice or suggestions. So the thing is i will be completing my HJ on 15th may and I was planning to give july attempt of FCPS part 1 but I was not able to decide speciality at all as I have no specific interest despite thinking alot about this...so after some brainstorming and research I decided to go for cardiology and give my part 1 in med and allied as it has intervention along with medicine. But yesterday a senior give me reality check which I kind of agree with that how cardiology is such a long route and and hectic with alot of uncertainty in Pak and its a better choice to go for surgery if staying in Pak, I got really confused since then and thinking of withdrawing from part 1 exam for now and take some time to decide and then give exam also two months are less but I could have done it if I was damn sure about it. But withdrawing will cost me 9k loss and what if after taking time again I end up taking same decisions. Should i take time and bear this loss of 9k, or give it anyway despite being unsure about the speciality?

Also as Im a first generation doctor, Im trying my best to take a decision which I wont regret later in life.
