The way it was, I literally just ended up picking at-random without having any clue as to what my party would end up as. I eventually just used the GameShark to unlock them all for everybody to get out of that predicament, but I HATE using cheat-sources for Final Fantasy games.
I might agree with this if it weren't for the simple fact that they showed all of the license board squares available beside the ones you unlocked already. Like I said before, it wasn't hard to just follow the path if you wanted a white mage, black mage or whatever. It wasn't often that you would have to pick a square outside a certain specialty to move on to the next one in the path. And in the few cases it wasn't obvious which way to go, or in the case of some of the more obscure weapon or armour squares, it's easy enough to find the entire license board online or in guides so you can plan ahead.

Even when it wasn't obvious though, it was generally easy to know that magic must be in one section while techniks are in another.
