>be me

A few months before, I went and took a qualifying exam for mechanical engineering and aircraft maintenance, I passed both.

what do i do now?

If I were to pursue mechanical engineering, stuff like an apartment to live in, commuting, among other things wouldn't be that much of a problem since I'd be living alongside 7 of my other cousins whose highs-school is situated within the same small town as my college (if I were to pursue mechanical engineering).

aircraft maintenance in the other hand would push me out of my comfort zone. The college campus where I had the qualifying exam is situated in a heavily populated city, meanwhile, the only way of life I know is that of a rural tofu boy who has ridden a subway metro like two times my entire life. Pursuing aircraft maintenance would mean relearning everything that I know as well as leaving my friends behind (I have 4). Expenses would also be a problem since dad recently just finished chemo and might need to get 2 or more so rounds, so finances might be a problem later on.

mechanical engineering seems to be easy choice however aircraft maintenance seems to be better in the long run due to high demand and low supply, meanwhile mechanical engineering fields seems to be a bit saturated at the moment (same reason why I set aside any IT related courses).

Would pursuing aircraft maintenance be worth the risk or should I just take the safe option?

thank you in advance :)
