Hey I'm 13, just starting GCSEs. I really want to go into pshycology but im worried I won't make it. Does cf affect things like exams and career choices?

Hi Toni! I am not sure what GCSEs are, but I think I can answer your next question. I feel like CF affects what you let it affect. For example, if you know that you don't deal well with a certain season, it is always smarter to have fewer obligations during that time. I hope I am answering this question somewhat correctly, since I don't know exactly what we're talking about here. As far as career choices go, I think that CF is something to think about when considering a career. I have had friends that wanted to teach elementary school, but got to the part where they are frequently interacting with kids, and found that they could not live a life in such a germ-filled environment. I try not to make choices in my life based on CF because I don't want to feel as though it's getting the best of me, but sometimes it is necessary to make choices based on CF so it DOESN'T get the best of you. I don't know if that made sense. I like to think that CF does not rule my life, but at the same time, I sometimes need to make choices that are in the best interest of staying healthy. If I knew what GCSEs were, I am sure my answers might have made a bit more sense! Well, Toni, if you have any other questions, let me know, and I'll do my best to answer them! I'm 19 years old (almost 20), so I've probably experienced or am in the process of experiencing many of the things you are curious about. Hope to hear from you!

Thanks!! I'm a girl too, just in case anyone's worrying. Not that its worrying but there we go.

I can see where you are coming from.
By the way, GCSE's are an exam everyone in the UK takes when they are 15/16. IN your 9th and 10th grades I think it is in America? Sorry If you don't live there..I just assumed..oh well.

Thanks again!
