Do what’s right for you
Remember – there is no one-size-fits-all solution. What's important is that you do what feels right for you – not because all your friends are studying X degree or because your parents want you to study Y.
By taking the time to research the best way to get to where you want to be, you'll be in a great position to take that next step, in whichever direction it may be.
