I'm a senior in high school. Don't stress about it. My parents are the same way. Enjoy high school if you can. I've been accepted to colleges and I have no clue what I'm doing with my life. As everyone's told me, you'll figure it out in college. As for right now, explore your interests I'm high school

But in my high school, they already made us choose 2 elective subjects to study (chemistry,physics,business,etc....). Basically hey are trying to make us choose what we want to become at an early stage.

Every high school is like that although for my school chem and physics are required.

Yeah I know the feeling, I'm going into 10th grade this year and it feels like my school has already made me choose my career and is now trying to get me to decide my retirement plan.
My older sister went through the same thing as well and she told me to (although this sounds like one of those motivational posters on tumblr) 'choose each of your subjects according to what you're good at and what makes you happy then try and get a degree from it'

A tip. Do NOT let your parents do what they did to me. Made me do classes THEY thought would be best and now I'm failing.

I'm in Australia and our subjects go towards a score that lets universities decide if we're intelligent enough for their courses (I think this is similar to other countries) any way, we've been told to stick to subjects your good at and will give you a higher score. Keep a maths, English and a science, a language if you can and then a spare subject for your interests. I hope that helps?

Some questions that may provide you some clarity: what do you enjoy doing? While you may not have a particular talent, does anything come relatively easy to you? Do you feel drawn to something?
Electives offered by your high school are great ways to get a taste of something. You might also consider talking to your schools career/guidance counselor... They may have some opportunities for you to experience different career paths.
