Three futures
- be going to: plans and intentions, or evidence now - I am going to study medicine. Look at those clouds, it is going to rain.
- will: instant decisions, offers, promises and opinions - I will help you. I think prices will rise.
- present continuous: fixed arrangements with a time - I am meeting the director at ten.
With I think, probably, maybe we normally use will, not going to.
