Hi Holly,

Thanks for your last e-mail. You asked me what I'm going to do next year, so here is the big news: I've finally decided!

As you know, I'm in Year 10 (we call it « troisième » in France) and I take the brevet in June. I'm quite good at maths and I love physics, but I can't stand literature: my French teacher makes us read three novels a term and I find it really boring. So I'm not going to choose the literature option at the lycée. Instead, I'm going to take science options in order to study engineering later. My dream is to design bridges, like my grandfather.

My best friend Inès has a different plan. She's brilliant at drawing and she's interested in fashion, so she's going to do a vocational course in a fashion school in Marseille. Our career adviser says it's a good idea, because she can start working at eighteen.

What about you? Are you taking your GCSEs this year or next year? And have you chosen your A-levels yet? I know you're keen on biology — are you still planning to become a vet?

Write soon!
Lucas
