My future profession

It is not an easy thing to choose a profession out of more than 2000 exiting in the world. After finishing school it was very difficult to choose the future profession. My teachers, parents and friends advised me to work first, and then to enter the institute. Many institutes and universities are in our city, but I wanted to become engineer. As for me my choice of this occupation didn’t come as a sudden flash. During all school years physics, chemistry and mathematics were my favorite subjects. I have read a lot of books and magazines on these subjects. Then my grandfather is an electrical engineer and he told me about his specialty. A now I want to speak on my future profession. An engineer is a very specific and difficult job. The electrical engineer must know the electric power system of that enterprise where he works. I am not sure, I will be a good specialist, but I shall try. Nowadays there are a lot of difficulties in choosing the job that is why I must do my best in order to become a good specialist.
