Dear Dr, I 'm writing to seek your kind advice .I'm a four-year Middle School student .I took my Brevet last June and had a pass with merit .The problem is that I 'm facing a dilemma as to the choice of the stream in which I 'll register in the lyce .My parents want me to register in the scientific stream whereas my choice goes for the literary stream. Indeed ,if I decide to register in the stream of my choice ,I will realize the dream of my life which consists of becoming a translator .I will work very hard to get a literary stream Baccalaureate ,which will be really disappointed .They want me to become a doctor In conclusion ,I 'm at a crossroads in my educational career .I don't know whether I must listen to my parents or decide about what do with my school life on my own .What should I do? Yours sincerely , Karim
