These are my subjects, for context I did BIOL10008, COMP10001, MAST10005 and TSTW last semester, I know this semester will probably be more busy I just want a feel of how much busier...

Hi, I'm a first year uni student who's lost in choosing career paths. I'm currently interested in physiotherapy, and according to my research they earn around 90,000 to 100,000-ish? But I don't really have an idea of what that looks like and whether that would be enough for me.

For me, an ideal salary would be able to send my kid to a private school, go on vacation maybe for 3 weeks of a year? Be able to have nice dinners occasionally (one every two months maybe?) and I also love going to concerts (which are maybe $500 a year max?). I grew up in the western suburbs of Melbourne, and would like to stay here in the future.

Im a first year bachelor of science student, basically right now I'm basically doing the core subjects for data science and physiotherapy (bc im really lost on which career path i want to take). On the other hand, I'm kind of thinking maybe I should just choose one major, do the core subjects for it and for everything else just kind of choose easy subjects? That way my WAM can be higher? I don't really know which approach I should be taking...or what is really the common approach people take?

I am a first year uni student at the university of melbourne, currently studying in a bachelor of science looking at majoring in either data science of physiotherapy (also struggling on deciding which to choose). I value having a good worklife balance, being able to tolerate my job, and job stability.

For salary, I would like to be above-average-ish? If I had children I'd like to send them to a private school, be able to go on vacation once or twice a year etc.

If you have any kind of suggestions or advice, please let me know!

I get that there's probably no one who can give me an exact answer...but if you have any piece of advice, please let me know!

Just for context, im a first year student majoring in data science for now, however I'm looking to try for doctor of physiotherapy after my bachelors. But I also have a data science masters package, so that's why I'm trying to choose between these two majors
