What do YOU want to do?
This so much. Only Q that you need to deeply think on.

You'll end up so unhappy ignoring this question in any number of ways, including;
*I shouldn't waste ATAR points, go do course deliberately with atar cut off slightly below. ATAR points aren't genie wishes and ergo, you don't waste them. Wasting them is doing something not right for you, and then potentially limiting yourself at uni finding it hard to perform in a degree you hate to even get a transfer.
*Doing what your parents/kids/bob's uncle says you should do.
*Doing what you think sounds good or is expected. (i.e I'm smart so I can't do teaching even though it's what I actually love)

If you aren't exactly sold on an area, sometimes going for a generalist bachelor's is wise and then specialising towards it via major, honours or eventual masters study etc.
