hi!
i'm a person whose entire family is either practising or studying medicine....but me,i have different ideas.don't really like medical.but my parents won't listen.help me convince my parents.i'm interested in ANYTHING BESIDES MEDICAL!
right now,i'm in O levels last year...but i need to choose my subjects in A level accordingly.
the worst part is that i do like biology,but not medical.and i have never studied subjects like economics,stats,etc before.
i might wanna add,i like architecture......my drawing isn't that good but i keep drawing something on my books and copies....

drawing on your copies doesn't really make you an architect, now making 3d models of buildings with dominoes and things like that, that would be more like it. Just sit down and think about all your interests, talk to someone who really knows you. And i agree with hunter, architecture is a good field.

well, if your good at it then do it,and its future choose what you are interested in, that's the secret to the successful careers for drawing --i draw too.
Draw from your imagination that increases your drawing skills :)

@OP The idea that pops to my mind reading your post is that you are developing a typical resistance against your family's profession (medicine). However, you need to open up and realise the fact that medicine a vast field with several specialisation domains. It is typical of human nature to resist against monotonous environment ( in your case medical profession) but you need to block this narrow minded thought and think rationally what you really want to do. To do this read buy some foundation level (o' level) economics books or read what different specialisations are currently present in the field of business; read about them. Moreover, you can also talk to people (for e.g your friend's parents or family friends) who are in various professions to know about it. If you find yourself developing a special interest in that specific, reserach over it more during the vacations and then finally choose the relevant A level subjects for it.
But my advise to you would to first find out why you do not want to enter the field of medicine if its solely on the basis of monotony of professions present in your family don't, I repeat DO NOT! waste your time in the above methods. This situation calls for deeper research in the field of medicine itself and you need to make use of internet to find specialisations within medical field not found in your family profession.
