      No!!! When I finished school I wanted to be a writer. And I’ve done many different kinds of jobs in my life.

      It’s interesting that you’re thinking both about being a lawyer and about researching diseases. There are a lot of jobs in law that are related to science — like
      – working for the patent office (deciding whether inventions are really new & whether they get to be protected)
      – working in intellectual property law

      No. But the longer I went through school, the more I realised how much I enjoyed doing Science. When I applied for university, I hadn’t even decided whether I wanted to do Physics, Chemistry or Maths. So I applied for all 3!
