A semester from now I'm going to get my degree in a course and a field I absolutely despise. I entered university 6 years ago thinking I was going to go into med school, 3 years ago I got kicked out due to me being a piece of shit student but I managed to enter another university this time taking an undergrad in biochemistry and within a year there it kind of dawned on me how little I wanted to enter medicine, I stayed in the course because I was afraid to get even further behind compared to my peers who were already finishing their undergrad and I decided to use this course to pursue a career in STEM/academia instead.
At this point while I wasn't passionate about science or chemistry I didn't hate it, but sometime over the past year with the pandemic and online learning there was a point where I lost any and all interest I had in continuing to study chemistry and for the past semester I've just been gritting my teeth and bearing it in order to pass my exams.
By the end of the year I'm going to graduate and now I don't know what to do. A year ago I planned on going to grad school but now any thoughts about continuing to study chemistry make me sick.
