Well i'm in year 10 (I'm 14) and I've got, like, 3 weeks left to fix some work experience for July or the school gets fined (apparently. dunno why). Thing is I have no idea where to go. I know a lot of people have just gone for any old place, but I'd kinda like to go somewhere that might give me an insight into my future career. I'm really interested in psychology and fashion, so what kinda business should I look for. Keeping in mind the deadline, that I live in a small town and am unable to go to a city, and that most of the good places have probably gone by now.
Cheers!

i got to do 2 work experiences, and i did one in BHS and one at the hospital. BHS was good, but avoid hospitals at all costs.
my school arrange all of ours - though some people sorted their own.
you could go to a hospital - but if your school isn't arranging for students to go there, it's unlikely. unless that is of course that you show a keen interest in wanting to be a nursey type when you're older. you wouldn't be clearing up sick, they have cleaners to do that. all i did was carry bloods down to pathology and hand lunch out. oh, and they shut me in a room with a patient who was scaring me.
you will get over it though
