The End

If any of the occupations in the book have sparked your interest, there is something you should keep in mind as you enter high school. All of these jobs have one thing in common. They require maths. Not only these jobs, but the list goes on and on: the inside front and back covers of the book list more occupations that require maths, and in most cases, sciences.

Don't feel discouraged if you're not a whiz at maths or science. Most of the women in this book would tell you that they weren't either. But what they would say is, “Don't drop maths and sciences! Keep your options open. Keep trying, keep plugging away, and you can do it!”

If you would like more information about these occupations or other career choices, talk to your school counsellor.
