I have often thought that schools should run a simulation agme for students as a career guide. The lowest level could be "On the Dole" and the highest could be "Consultant Paediatrician". Then after each round the computer could offeer each student "a career option" and the teacher could ask, "Would you be happy ending up with the career you have just been shown?" It would make the students think.
