Find a program for it at a nearby college.  Seems like I've seen them advertised at technical/community colleges.\n\nBy the way, I just saw an advertisement for the National Institute of Technology having a pharmacy technician program so I checked their website and:\n\nhttp://www.nitschools.com/main_programs_detail.php?schoolProgram=Pharmacy%20Technician\n\nThere are no doubt government regulations also with hoops that you'll have to jump through before becoming one.  You can probably call your local government info line and they could help you on that as far as pointing you to the right state government department that regulates that occupation.\n\nIt's impossible to give you specific details because this is a state-regulated profession and each state makes their own laws.

Does your school offer something like taking classes at a college near you?  The schools here have a program that lets students take classes in areas where they have exhausted the school's ability to offer classes in those areas.  The school district even pays for their tuition and books.  One of my kids took art and history classes a couple hours a day during his last year of high school. He got to go to three different colleges and had a good idea of the strengths and weaknesses of each of them when it was time to pick a college to go to.  A friend of his took computer courses and got a head start on college that way.\n\nIf your school doesn't have this program, you might try signing up for an independent study class with a faculty member at your school.  That can be a lot less structured than a regular class and you can go in the direction of your interest with someone who will guide you and may enjoy the experience with you.  You can probably help decide what your final project will be and you can make it something you're really excited about learning.\n\nOr take an evening class at a college near you--see if your school will give you credit for it.  If not, too bad, but you'll still get to infuse your intellectual life with some new energy.\n\nIs there some way to get experience in things you don't do as easily as learning at your school?  How about leadership skills, or exploring career areas through mentorships or job shadowing?  Volunteering to help less able students might challenge you more than learning does, but life skills are even more important than intellectual ones in the long run.\n\nYou really have a long time coming in that life you don't want to waste any of.  I understand how you feel, truly I do, but you should take a long, wise view here.  Unless you can demonstrate to your school district that you know it all already or you can convince a college to offer you entrance without a high school diploma (which might be an option, actually), or you're wealthy enough to live without getting a job, you're stuck in school.  \n\nYou do have my sympathy.  I know it's no easier for very talented students to make it through school than it is for intellectually challenged ones.  In both cases, special education options are needed.

Learn the computer.  As a System and Network admin for my company there is only one way to get in with me.  Have a brain cell working and be confident.  Work as an intern and work for free.  Soak in all the knowledge you can.  Get 2 or 3 computers even if they are crap and network them so you can say you did it at home.  Play around with them learn and more than what the teachers are giving you.  You’re in school for computer that means you have access to pirated material learn the OS and the Server OS.  I just terminated a person who had a degree but I don't know how she got it because she did not know a thing.  I want someone is not afraid to mess up its part of the game.  Get in with help desk and work your way up the latter take chances and get with your school and see if they can help you out.  Feel free to contact me if you like. If your going to a technical school such as DeVry then they should have something for you.  If your going to a real Universaty then make sure you get your BS in computers.

Instead of taking a fifth year of high school, you can probably find a community (2-year) college or technical school that would admit you.\n\nIf you can do really well at the community college you could then transfer to a four-year institution. If you have a talent for something taught in a technical school, you could go there and prepare for a good career.\n\nGood luck!\n\ns

I would worry about getting into a good college, take on a few jobs that are in a similar field to what you may have interests in.  Take on some interns, etc.  I was determined to be a Dr. in high school, but once I got into college I realized that everyone else had the same idea, and it just wasnt for me.  I found a job online and began working with children with autism doing behavior therapy.  I am 24 now and have a CAREER with a decent salary working organizing home programs for children with autism.  I love my work and hope to do it the rest of my life.  Look up ABA behavior therapy, or DTT,or positions working with children with autism.  This is an exploding field due to the unfortunate rise in children being diagnosed with autism (1 in every 166 children born will be diagnosed with some form of autism) and also a very new field that is almost always looking for dedicated therapists.  You might be interested due to your interest in analyzing the behavior of other and interest in helping better others lives.

In the US it can be military training, a two year technical school, or a two-year Associates Degree college program to become a technician. A minimum four year Bachelor's Degree program is required to become a licensed engineer. Becoming a licensed ham radio operator or an active member of a robotics hobbyist club will help you to become an exceptional engineer.\n\nWK

You need a degree. the word diploma brings a notion of low education. even though its for a PC repair tech, it stills comes across as uneducated. Forget the online crap and either go to a real school or pray you get hired somewhere.

maybe your line of education isn't really what you want to do.  Are you that major for yourself, or for others?  It's hard to get geared up for a job you don't really have an interest in.  Perhaps you should rethink your major and take stock in where you would like your life to take you.  Or perhaps you should make your own road and take your life along with you.  The key is to be happy doing what you do.  That way your heart is in it.  Good luck with your journey.  And of course, if you can get someone to pay for it, there's always grad school!

I guess I have done that.  I have always liked to talk...I have always liked to make people laugh... I turned that into a pretty nice little career in radio.  True, I do have a B.A. Degree in Communication Studies/Radio, TV, And Film, but there are a number of people in broadcasting that have never set foot into a university classroom.  There are a lot of places that say they "prefer" applicants to at least have some college. On the other hand, some places will accept "Real World" experience in that particular field as enough to qualify you for employment.  Just remember, Very few people working today can actually say they love the job they currently have, or even expected to be working in the industry that they currently are.  Sometimes it comes down to what you need to do to survive.  But if you have a dream to do something, with your life, you have to at least give it a shot.  If you make it.... fantastic!  But if you dont make it, at least you tried, and will not have to live with "What if I tried" looming over you for the rest of your life.

Keep focused. \n\nAnd ask yourself why you wanna reach that goal. How is it important to you? What difference will it/does it make in your life? How do you wanna live your life? etc....\n\nHow do you plan on doing it through school? through your relations? etc...\n\nAnd keep yourself interested in it check out some websites concerning it and start preparing yourself for the big day to come.\n\nExample I want to be a car engineer working for Nissan but I keep checking out websites from other car companies too. \n\nGood Luck!

A trade school will teach you a specific trade and get you into the work force quite quickly if you pick a trade that is in demand and if you have an aptitude for it. Check the trade schools placement rates to determine if there is a demand for their graduates. An associates degree is good if you're interested in continuing on to get a Bachelors or Graduate degree. It is also good in certain fields, such as electronics tech and other professional workplace technicians such as medical. Either one, make sure you're serious about what kind of work you want to do, because it's just a waste of time and money if you're not ready to put your full effort into it.

You can do that if you go enlisted. They will help you get your bachelors, its called TA tuition assistance, as well as having the MGIB.

There's no need for formal education for pharmacy tech.  Most pharmacies will train you.  After a few months in a pharmacy, you should try to take the certification exam.  There are review books for it.\nPharmacy education, for pharmacists, is accredited by the ACPE, American Council for Pharmacy Education.\nFor pharmacy technicians, it appears programs are certified by the ASHP, American Society of Health System Pharmacists.\nhttp://www.acpe-accredit.org/technicians/accredit.asp
