<p>Hi everyone, this is my first time posting and I need some advice. I've currently completed 2 years of a Bachelor of Commerce as an Accounting major. While I've maintained pretty high marks (3.89 GPA), I just don't know if I'm in the right program considering my own personality traits. The majority of students in my program are aiming for the CA/CPA designation and most likely a Big 4 accounting firm but I just don't see if I can see myself doing the same given the work environment of such a place and some of the horror stories I've heard about doing so. Of course there's alternatives to the Big 4 and even public accounting but I'm just so worried about what else I could do. I'm so frustrated because even throughout high school I would always have marks above 80% whether they be science, math, or language courses but I just don't know what I want to do for a living. From what I can see, to make a decent living as an accountant it would involve moving fairly high up within a company with the accompanying pressures and I just don't know if I can see myself being in charge of, for example, a company's finances and capital expenditures. My ideal job would involve working in the same location mostly every day, with no surrounding aura of competition, or extreme stress to complete complicated and highly analytical tasks placed in front of me. Researching my personality type recently, I cam across the career of pharmacist and really feel down that I didn't consider it sooner as it seems like it would be an ideal job for me but pursuing it now would mean either dropping out of my current program and beginning my per-requisites or finishing off my 2 remaining years and then beginning, but that would feel like an eternity to me. I am also worried because I would be competing with bright students coming straight out of high school with the maths and sciences fresh in their minds while I would have some serious catching up to do. I am also worried because I would only want to complete the required courses for pharmacy school as opposed to completing a 4 year science program, for which I could see relatively little use. I really need some advice. Are there well-paying (65k +) accounting related jobs for people such as myself and do you think it would be prudent to drop everything and pretty much start from scratch to pursue pharmacy? Any advice is appreciated. Thank you.</p>
