Aoa. I am giving my O level exams this year. I am a science student. I am really confused what to do afterwards.
If I don't do do medical or engineering then what are the other fields and I can go for after A levels? Other than business? What subjects should I choose for A levels? I am going to stay and study in Pakistan.
I absolutely hate Math.
I will just have to do FSc and then Medical if there are no other options.

knowing that you hate math and also uninterested in medical, this means any technical field is not for you. In that case business comes next which u also don't want to do. So here are some options for what u may choose as ur profession along with the major subjects u may take.
- fashion designer (art n design)
- islamic scholar (islamic studies)
- writer (language subjects)
whereas i know, these professions are valued in pakistan and even internationally in most cases.

Well I am fine with the science subjects but the problem is I don't want to do FSc and to get into a good medical college in Pakistan, you've to do FSc.
Fashion Designing sounds pretty good but sadly I didn't take Arts in O levels.

thats not a problem, you may take arts now. Whereas i know arts is about your skills more than your base. If you are good at imagination and can express that imagination in form of good drawings, handling that subjects and profession is not a problem. Furthermore, fashion designing is an international profession if you move to that scale.

Wouldn't the students who have already taken Arts in O levels be way better at it than me? What if I get really bad grades?

I have seen some students studying business in a levels after being a science student in o levels. Thats ur interest which takes over ur poor base. if u like arts, u shuld have no problems. just read the subject syllabus and see what u like.

I absolutely adore writing. I would go for English Literature but the problem is I didn't take it O levels.
o levels is not a big deal. Have u ever thought how people study things in a levels like physcology which was never availbel for study in o levels? thats how u learn new things. again language is a skill which u improve with interest nt exams.

Yeah sure, but I wouldn't want to take any risks.
Isn't there anything in sciences other than medical or engineering?

well their is a field which is a combination of science and commerce but its value i am not sure of you require these subs in A( need science in O level as u want to stay in pak) it combines buisness with engineering sub combos phy chem math and buisness/eco . but you can take science along with litrature thats also a good combo

I do not like Math. :(
And I don't want to study business either.
I'd love to take literature with sciences but then what will I do in the future?

well. if u do not like maths then forget engineering :) . then you have two options take all humanitarian subs like this combo
eco socio lit english lit . then take urdu in A2 or take these combos
phy chem bio and lit ( abit hectic)
phy chem lit (again makes no sense as it will not open many fields as without bio no medical and without maths no eng) :)

a perfect solution:
1) become a technical writer
or have two professions (major n minor)
