Not sure what to do with my life lol

Well im in UK and about to go to college, i haven't tried the past couple years, but could easily pass with A's if worked hard enough, however the course im thinking of doing is game development or something to do with the IT sector, but i only need 4 GCSE's to get in, and that means its super easy, I can literally not even turn up to school and still get it, just a bit stuck as i feel im wasting my potential, but there is no alternative that i find enjoyable, even after i get a ok job in IT, what then? save money until i die? i know theres way to get back to this point im in easily, and i know i aint respawing

You can always explore new hobbies.  If  majoring in the IT sector is boring to you. You can  always find projects to do or talk to  people to find inspiration.

I mean in the IT field, you have the potential to make a lot of money.
Yes, of course you should save some up. The way you feel about money now, may change later on when you're older.
You might want to buy a new house, well you didn't save any up so you can't.
You may want to buy a brand new car, good thing you saved up.

There's a lot of "what if" things that could happen and it'd be smart to have some money saved.

But other than that, go enjoy yourself and go on vacations to places you've always wanted to go!

I started Open university April last year doing a Computing and IT degree. I have completed and passed the first module, im happy that i did and enjoyed learning this subject to an extent and also the comfort of learning from home. I started the next module not long after feeling prepared, but i realised i needed to take a break from learning and had some things i needed to do that would effect my study time, but also to think about wether the subject was really up my street as there is a alot of computer science involved such as studying robotics ect that i feel isn't for me...I also need to decide wether i want to study something different and at least im still early in my studies so its not so bad if i do.

My point is that through personal expierence, you need to think about what you are doing and what you want to do. It is all down to you, no one else. If you plan to take a course or degree, think it through thoroughly, thinking about how it will benefit you and your career.

If you find your current course unrewarding why not sign up for something like a double major?
Some times a challenge is what keeps things interesting

How about exploring different fields? For example, if you want to go into medicine a lot of pre-medical students "shadow" physicians to learn more about the profession and see if it is a good fit for them. Maybe try finding an equivalent of "shadowing" for any professions you might be interested in. Personally, I do think the medical field has a lot to offer both in terms of job stability but also excitement depending on your personal preferences. There is usually a specialty that suits anyone. Don't be disheartened, and use this chance to really explore. The world is your oyster!
