    :) I have a student with a similar dilemma! Except her family wants her to enter the medical field & she is DYING to be a civil engineer. Her family pressures her to the point where it is cruel and causing her a lot of unnecessary pain & self doubt. For Gods sake, she knows what she wants to do with her life and she has the tools and skills to do it WHY IS THAT A PROBLEM?!?!? :( I guess I'm just providing support here and letting you know you're not alone in this. I don't really have any advice beyond a thought-provoking question: If you follow your dreams and succeed and achieve happiness, is your family really going to care in 10 years what your career is? Most of all, in 10 years if you follow the path THEY made for your life, will you be able to love them without feeling hurt all the time? Will you be happy?

    Best of luck to you! Its such a shame that we have to make these decisions all at once, and so young too :-/

      Thank you so much. You are really helping me a lot. But I guess, I should continue my course. I'm starting to accept it and love it. Thank you again. :)
