Are you in Quebec? The CEGEP system there is specifically a great and cheap way to try out multiple career paths. It's like a mix of trade school and the freshman year of every university faculty.
It's still a system that sort of pushes you into university without any experience of what doing a real job is like, but it's at least a good way to explore the academic side of a wide variety of subjects.
No, I'm in Alberta unfortunately
On the bright side, if you're interested in paleontology, the prairies are a pretty neat place to be! The Burgess Shale is pretty cool.
