ok, here is the problem with me. I am strong in math and science, right now i'm taking chemistry honors and algebra 2, and next year i'll be taking physics AP and Chemistry AP and Pre-cal. I want to go into the fashion marketing/advertising field, is that a bad choice for me? hopefully i didn't sound to confusing...please i need some advice and help.

i don't know you or what other interests you have...but from the description above you really don't sound like your interests point to fashion or marketing. are you sure that's what you want? right now it really sounds much more like you're preparing yourself to be a doctor or something. would you consider yourself a creative person? if not, then advertising/marketing and also fashion (marketing or in general) may not be what you would be happiest doing after all.
but hey, you know yourself much better than anyone here does. is there any more info you could share, like maybe why you think it might be the career for you? it sounds like it's a little early for you to even be deciding that, though, if you ask me.

Hey, look! Finally a different signature after all these years!

I think the problem with schools is that due to the "core curriculum" and graduation requirements we have, it's hard for us to take the classes we truly want to do.
You probably realize that you're strong in math and science because we've taken so many math and science classes. But you don't know if you're strong in fashion/marketing yet because it's not one of those core classes that we take every single year. You should probably take some business and fashion classes.
I would do what I want to do, regardless of my ability in that field. I don't think that you should choose your career depending on what you're good at, because you may not necessarily enjoy what you're good at.
