Im in12th grade i dont have a career interest should I go to college now or wait till I find a career interest

i think u should go bcuz if u wait then i may neva want to go. dont b like me have to wait until next school year to start college. if u dont kno wat u want to do u can jus go n tak general studies until u make up ur mind jus dont stay home and wait.

The "you will never go back once you leave" argument is nonsense; I hear that all the time, but there is no evidence that this is the case, and many people get frustrated working at dead-end jobs and can hardly wait to go back to school. However, don't put off college until you know what you want to do, because college is much more likely to provide guidance than would a low-level job. Not only might a required course surprise you and lead you to the perfect job, but colleges have career centers which can test your aptitude and interests, giving you some ideas of what you want to do, and they also can let you do things like internships and informational interviews which would give you a view of what jobs you don't know much about are really like.

A long time ago, when I was in high school - there were 3 options. Go to college, get a job, or get married. It seemed like a lot of girls I knew, who were not going to college and didn't have a job - settle for marriage. By the time I was getting out of college, they were getting divorces. Why not get a job and take some classes at your local community college. That way, you can see the "work world" and still sample college life. Take a computer course (Word, Excel, PowerPoint), English, Business Math or Accounting. But don't forget - a lot of very rich people didn't graduate from college. Including Bill Gates.

If i were you i would go to college now and just take general studies and find out where your interests are. Stick your foot in all directions and see which direction suits you best. I had this exact problem when i graduated from high school, but decided to go to university right away and see what there was to offer and eventually i found the perfect direction for me and to this day i love it!

You can go and take the basic subjects.(Liberal Arts) Once you are there you will probably find your interest.

You could go to a JuCo first to get your footing and find what you want to do. It will be cheaper and you can at least end up with an Associates degree that will help you find a job if it turns out that you don't want to pursue any more education. Going to college is an investment in your future. It is really expensive, but you have to believe that you will be making enough when your done to pay off all those loans! And there are tons of opportunities at universities to help with studying and "finding your way," at least there are at mine. K-State is really good about that. If you're wanting to go to a 4-year school, look for one with those kinds of programs. Otherwise, go to JuCo and take it from there.

Many degrees require the "core" curriculum - English, math, science, and the like, and many schools have specific requirements for all students; for example, mine required Public Speaking and a computer course. You can start working on these classes and decide later what you want your actual degree program to be.

I think you should go now. If you have an opportunity to go, you should. Not all people can afford to go or have a chance to go and I think you owe it to yourself to at least test the waters. Your first year of college doesn't really lock you into a career path.. general courses like English and electives can apply towards many majors. After a year, think about your interests again.. maybe something will sprout up. If you're worried about money, look into community college. Check with them which courses you can get credit for at the local college - it will save you money while you take some core classes. Whatever you do, do so without regret.. but there's something unique about college life - much like going to a prom or such.. try not to miss out.

Go to college and get all your basic requiements out of the way, ENGLISH< MATH <PHYSCOLOGY< ETC> THAT WILL TAK E 1 1/2 to 2 years by then you may know whay=t you want to do, and you have not wasted time, Trust me i'm in my 39's and wished i had gone to school sooner.
