Hi everyone, I'm currently an A level student doing english lit, sociology, and history and I feel like I've been doing everything wrong. I want to do english and philosophy at uni, but it's a completely useless degree that I'll struggle to get a good job with. The avenue everyone recommends to me is teaching, but I don't want to work in a school, in England, for scraps.

I just feel like doing a complete 180 and doing business management or something like that, but 'm not very good at maths or science which is where all the good careers are. Just wondering if there are any good degrees (other than law) that I could look into. Thanks!

Hi! I'm currently a sixth form student looking at studying/living in Japan. I've had a keen interest in Japanese culture since I was young, and have been studying the language independently since the start of this year. I'm from England, but I dream of one day living and working in Japan, I just don't know where to start. I'm contemplating whether or not I should pursue East Asian Studies at a UK university, or study something else and go to a Japanese Language school after. I really need some guidance!! I plan to start applying for universities soon so I need to make a decision.

Let's say if I were to study something else at a UK university and got my undergraduate degree in that; could I apply to study at a Japanese Language school afterwards? If so, how could I do it? The thing I'm most worried about is expenses and securing a visa; but if I were to go with that hypothetical, could you tell me how to do it?

Thank you for reading!
