Executive Summary:
Across Uganda and much of Africa, students widely believe that science-based careers such as medicine and engineering guarantee success, while arts and humanities are inferior. This paper challenges that assumption, arguing that career success is not determined by subject category but by personal strengths, skills, and adaptability. Drawing on existing research and regional realities, the paper highlights the dangers of career misalignment and calls for a shift toward self-awareness and informed decision-making in education (World Bank, 2020; OECD, 2019).
