How long does it take to become a doctor (GP)? Is it ok to take biology and chemistry or do you need physics as well?
Medicine is a 6 year degree, including a first initial year of Health Sciences or Biomedical Sciences. In terms of entry requirements, you will need a strong background in at least 3 sciences - so this means you dont have to have Physics but it would be helpful since this will be part of that first year of general health papers. Dont forget you will also need excellent English as well.

Y12 maths and physics would be helpful for the initial Semester 1 Astronomy paper at Canterbury. Some more advanced papers will also require Y13 physics and maths with calculus.

And of course, the Maths and Physics departments will also be offering Stage 1 papers.

How long would it take to get a dipolma in Commerce?
Generally students going into Commerce will start out with a Bachelor of Commerce, which is a 3 year degree. These degrees are pretty flexible so you can do something quite broad or something very specialised. Once you work out what path you want to go down, try and get some work experience to complement your degrees - a summer internship or a part-time job. It will really help when you graduate and go to get that first real job!
Howcan i get in to a job asap wif out quliferations to do with it?
It would depend on what the job is, but a postive, can-do attitude can help a lot. Call the company youre interested in and offer to volunteer/intern/do some work experience for a while. That way you can find out about the job and they can find out about you!
What are the important subjects that I have to take if I want to have a good career in being a flight attendant?
The things that will set a future Flight Attendant apart are often certain skills, rather than particular subjects. However, English is an important subject to take and any additional languages would be a bonus. Subjects like Tourism, Hospitality and even Geography would also be helpful. Because Flight Attendants are often the face of an airline, the skills that will be really important are things like the ability to communicate well, especially in challenging situations, the ability to remain calm, problem solving skills, being a team player and having a can-do attitude.
What happens if i really want to become a vets nurse but i am struggling in Biology??
Passion can get you a long way! Stick with the biology, but maybe try and get some practical experience too.

Also check out what the minimum entry requirements are for the course you want to do - there is often leniency here and you may be able to do a catch up class at uni/tech.
