    What should i do for the rest of my life?

    I wanna be a doctor but i can't get the points am thinking or under gradates medicine after but what should i take up am thinking nursing but if the under gradates idea doesn't work i don't wanna be a nurse forever.
    I love the human mind but i can't do Psychology too much points i love learning about why people do what they do , why people kill or why they feel they nee to keep things to themselves or why people feel more comfortable when they can't see who they are talking to. I wouldn't mind beginning in a career like that for the rest of my life if plan A doesn't work

    My degree is in Science, so I'm not too good on the medical side... But can you not work your way up through Diploma course then to Degree in any of your areas of interest?

    There is another way to doing Psychology. In UCC, Psychology is a choice subject in Arts, and arts was 360 points last year which is well below what psychology itself usually is.

    It you want to keep psychology on then, it only takes one extra year.

    See if the college you want to go to does psychology that way.

    Maybe studying Sociology would interest you then? I'm not the most knowledgeable on the matter, but it seems it is about why do people do this that or the other.
    You can do it in UL, UCG and UCC anyway.
