<p>"I laugh at drama as well.</p>
<p>I won't let me fail myself as that is my only fear...My goal is to change the world for the better,that will never change. If it requires me to lock myself in my room 24/7, that is what it requires. I see the world and the human race failing, and failure isn't an option."</p>
<p>LOL. Best post ever. I see this kid becoming Harvey Dent pre-Two Face era. I just hope he doesn't have multiple personalities...</p>
<p>I can't tell you what my sure set path is in life..That is why I want to try to conform to my interests...Yes, Jonri is right, I have had equal thoughts of going for my Ph.D...If you remember this is why I mentioned Physics in my very first post. </p>
<p>In response to everyone, I would like you to read up on my personality type....Especially you crnchycereal.</p>
<p>Kick someones ass and take their money.</p>
<p>If it feels good, then you will like being a lawyer.</p>
<p>Haha Nightmarerec0n is a complete joke.</p>
<p>Money isn't a priority at all...I mean I would like to live well,but I don't need 5 houses and 10 cars.</p>
<p>I was thinking about either being a prosecutor or a buisness lawyer.
In the 1st I may actually do good in.
The 2nd, I won't feel bad about kicking another businesses ass and taking their money.</p>
<p>Choose a major you would be happy having a job in, regardless of if you go to law school. You really have NO idea if you are still going to be as jazzed about law school in four years, and you do not want the day you decide law really isn’t for you to be the day you ALSO find out that you really don’t know what the hell you are gonna do with a poly sci degree. </p>
<p>Second… aw hell I am done. I am pretty sure this guy is a troll, so I really should stop feeding him.</p>

Whoa... that felt good... :D
It stopped feeling good when the police came and arrested me, though... :p</p>
<p>Since the OP is so young this is probably plausible:</p>
<p>1) Get an internship with a local or state government agency after your freshman and/or sophomore year in college. Anything with the name of "Commission of XYZ" shall do. If you like this, you'll probably like working for, well, government and some NGOs.</p>
<p>2) Get an internship in Investment Banking (preferrably M&A & preferrably in NY) during your post-junior year summer to see if you can handle/endure/or even moderately enjoy the (very long) hours and the substance of the work (and the nice paycheck/vain lifestyle). Aim for a top firm like, say, Merrill Lynch or Morgan Stanley--but for experience's sake, even a lesser known firm might do (look at the vault guides for banking, they have the top-50 firms ranked). If you don't like this experience, you probably won't like BIG LAW/Corporate Law (of course, presuming the reason is that you are bad at math ... but if you were, you probably won't be able to get the internship in the first place).</p>
<p>Of course, all of this assumes that you will be able to get into a top college. So, work hard to get there.</p>
<p>Good luck.</p>
<p>"I would like you to read up on my personality type....ENTJ"</p>
<p>My personal bias is that these test/categories are worthless. They might be useful right away; that is, if you are going to apply for jobs right away it might be useful for determining where your heart lies at the moment. Other than that, anecdotally, I know of people that have changed personalities over time (some times simply through daily experiences, other times like a major event such as the death of a relative).</p>
<p>Best advice, without getting too philosophical: know yourself.</p>
<p>To the OP:
If you're serious, it's time to LIGHTEN UP. It's OK while in high school to think of possible careers, but it's way way too soon to let this run your life. First, you need to think about what college to go to and what to major in so that you can apply to colleges intelligently and spend four years of your life takign courses that you enjoy. Much later is the time to think about law school or, for that matter, what else you might do after college.</p>
<p>First things first.</p>
<p>And, by the way, forget about predicting what grades you will earn in college. First, earn your high school grades.</p>
