Lets see here...
... What do people Do When They Didnt Go To College...

* Could always smoke crack
* Could start pimping
* Start selling Drugs
* Live with your mother until you're ...say 35 yrs old.
* Definitley you would smoke a joint here n there
* Work @ a Gas station for $6.00/hr
* Stay on the internet day in and day out
* Start a porn web site
* Become a heroin addict
* When you have no place to sleep - its always easy to find somewhere that'll welcome u - get arrested and have a nice stay @ the county Jail.
* Sell your body
* Regret that you never got an education...

Don't be stupid, Go to school and get a degree --- it's a great security to have for when/if you need something to fall back on. People with college degrees avg $56k a year, people with out a college degree avg $26k a year.

Personally I think it's better if you go to college. Without an education, the jobs you can get are pretty limited and mostly tend to suck. Maybe if you want to live alone it's okay to be a truck driver, but if you have a spouse and baby at home (or want that), then it's not a good idea. But that doesn't mean you have to go to college right away! It's perfectly acceptable to take a year off and work after high school or go to a community/tech college and later transfer to a four-year school. In fact, I think it's better that way. Most high school seniors are completely sick of school. They want to go for the next four years, just to get it over with. But many are just setting themselves up for disaster. They will burn out in college, and afterwards when they go straight from college into the rest of their life, they will regret it because they never had a chance to really live. I definitely suggest putting college off for a year, especially since you're not sure. My aunt wasn't sure if she wanted to go to college but as she said, "After a year of scrubbing toilets, I knew I had to."

You could always go to a tech school while your still in high school. It's like an alternative to college.For example you can be a certified nurse and things like that if you graduate from tech.But the best thing to do is to go to college. You've gotten this far already why just throw it all away now,you know?

if you dont want to go to college theres plenty of things you can do. for instance, my brother is going to florida to join a spiritual group and spend some time soaking up the sun and thinking out his life. another example is, i dont know if you watch this show, but on The OC, one of the characters was going to go all over the world doing what he loves, surfing. if you have a passion it would be cool to do it somewhere else in the world to experience it and that place. if you need any other advice please contact me again. hope this helps.
you know you love me,

Going college is difficult, but having any college degree on record will definitely get you a great job, or the job YOUR looking for.

Not going to college would probably not give you a pleasent job, but of course.. it's your decision, and i know many people who didn't go to college and they have wonderful jobs!

My parents didn't go to collage but they are lucky they have good jobs. If you want to work at McDonals, Burger King, QT, Wal Mart, then don't go to collage. I think you really should. If not you will probablly regret it for the rest of your life. You can get a good education, great job and be successful.

HEYxBEAUTIFUL answered Friday January 27 2006, 5:57 pm:
I suggest for you to go to college. Even if you only go to a community college for 4 years. It will be very hard for you to get a decent job and it will haunt you for the rest of your life. To make the best future for yourself, to to college. ♥

you should definetly go to college because you never know what you will want to do later on. also, people who o to college are more likely to get hired and to make more money. it really is the right choice!

DancinCutie08 answered Friday January 27 2006, 5:12 pm:
well beauty school, any kind of tech school, binuess school. there are alot of jobs out there that only require degrees from those kind of places. most of them are only 2-3 years and arent like college at all and you can take while you are still in highschool if you want

although alot of places dont require a college edu. you will prob make twice as much if you do have a college edu. or something beyond highschool. it really all depends on what you want to be and how far you want to go with it. if you can give me some ideas i can give you some options!

karenR answered Friday January 27 2006, 5:01 pm:
Those who don't go to college usually just get a job and get on with life.

Not every job requires a college education. They may not be the highest paying jobs but there are some.

Others go to a technical school and learn to do something they are interested in.

Some get married.

Good luck, you have a while to think about it.

By the way, you can go to college without knowing what exactly you want to do. Not everyone goes with a specific goal in mind. :)
