I'm overeducated in the wrong sort of thing for my dream type of career... my parents would not let me drop out of college on a full scholarship and attend culinary school, so as an end result, I'm educated to run stats, design surveys or translate. When I dream I'm cooking :(
At least you can cook every night :cheese:

My career interests coincide with my INTJ preferences:

*Pathologist/Epidemiologist/Microbiologist

*COO/CTO

*Consulting

I'm in nursing but have constantly been told that I should become a writer or teacher/ professor because I would be good at it. Both things that I don't really want to do at all.

not the same though... like the dude said in Pretty Woman... I want to CREATE something, and my education leaves me the options of sitting at the desk and processing things... exactly the type of work that bores me to tears :thumbdown:

You studied mathematics/statistics?

Perhaps computer programming would be up your alley, and not require too much additional education? There is pride in writing a novel algorithm.
