8. Final Reflection. Answer these questions underneath each question. Format neatly. Your response should be
longer and deeper than this.
 Before I did the research, I already had a career of choice and a post-secondary

institution in my mind, which would be mechanical engineering at MIT, but this assignment

broadened my view on careers. I found the routine of the assignment very interesting because it

has a nice flow in it and can give a lot of help to someone who might be struggling to find a

career choice or someone who knows what they want to be but struggle to find the way to that

point. I also learned that my top subject would be computers, although I always thought it would

be mathematics. I would probably take the physics program at the University of Toronto

because it is a very nice environment and program to study in. I did some research and have

been to there as well, and their physics program has very nice feedbacks. I liked physics

because it had a reasonably high salary and it is one of my topics of interest, as well as it had a

very nice outlook in Ontario, which is where I would prefer to work and live in the future. I didn’t

like how much it took to enroll in the program annually, along with the high monetary needs for

necessities.
