Career in Computers


Question Posted Tuesday August 8 2006, 6:17 pm

im 16/f going into the 11th grade this year. now of course, all the teachers are going to say "get ideas on what college you want to go to & what you want your career to be" but really, i don't know what i should do. since i only have 2 more years of hs left & take the SATS this year, i really want to have an idea of what i should be doing. i know what most of you are probably thinking. most kids decide a few years into college, but i really don't think i should do that. most of the time, i thought i would become a nurse. most people say 'thats what i should do' because im good with people & i dont get grossed out easily. ive watched surgerys before in the OR & i find it intersting. on the other hand, i really like computers. im good with HTML & web design & i also can fix them. i go over to my grandparents house a lot & always seem to fix things & hook it up for them. this doesn't seem like a job to me, this seems like fun. basically what im asking is, what do you guys think about my situation & if i do decide to go to college for computers, what good colleges can i go to in the PA, NY, NJ area & what are jobs i can do??

thanks!!

A career is computers is sort of vague, you could go to school to be a programmer (I wouldn't recommend it) or, as in my case, for a degree in computer science/engineering. I'd suggest you get some ideas for careers that involve computers and order a few books on the subject, get an idea of what they consist of so you can make an educated decision. I'd love to answer any more of your questions, just send them to my inbox.

It's the best choice to pick what you will be majoring in and stick with it when you go to college. It's a really good idea to know what field you want to be in. Are you good in math and science? Pick a medical, scientific field. (Doctor, Scientist, Surgeon, Dentist, Nurse, Biologists).Then ask. Are you a indoor or outdoor person? Are you better off with people, animals, or just by yourself? Are you good in English and History? There's always lawyers, authors, teaching history or literature (this applies to math and science), historian. And again, ask the same questions. Indoor or outdoor? etc. Picking a job is might be one of the difficult choices in life. Just ask your self a bunch of questions. Are you good with people? If so a child or adult? Animals? Water or land? By yourself? Get my drift? If you need more help, just email me at xchoke_on_Dead_hopex@yahoo.com and i'll give you a better exlaination and help you
