Is Penn Foster Career School a trustworthy intuition?

I just enrolled in the print version of the Business course there, and so far things seem to be going well. I was VERY cautious before enrolling because I didn't want to end up with a degree that wasn't worth anything. I'm still researching how respected their degrees are, but on a positive note, they are accepted by VA (Veteran's Administration) for educational benefits under the Montgomery G.I. Bill so they can't be too bad or else they wouldn't approve them.

Wow.  This one is a doozy.  First, I wanted to let you know that I've been where you are and that you really have no concrete way of knowing whether the "mistake" you think you may have made is a "good" or "bad" decision.  As for the "other" program, are you sure you can't get in?  It's never too late to try.  Even if you try and don't get in, you can always try to strengthen you portfolio/resume/cv and try again next semester/year.  As for being a "nobody," I don't think that's true.  We live in a society that constantly bombards us with the impression that if we are not beautiful, rich, and successful (on society's terms) that we are failures or a "nobody." I personally happen to believe that every human being carries with her or him a spark of the divine, and that this alone makes us all "somebody."  It sounds like you are really striving to do something good for yourself, keep trying, and don't let these bumps in the road get you down.

Well someguy, I tend to believe that our ability to be intuitive relies mainly on our experiences.  That is to say that the more outcomes that we may have had from our expectations do tend to color our perception of the fortcoming picture.\nI haven't got any more for you but I hope that this will help you out some.

I have heard from people who have been through them. They were pleasantly surprised, but unfortunately, most of the people who try it do not complete it. They try to go by your own time and although it might sound really good, if you did not have time to go to a normal college to begin with, you will not want to put much effort into these colleges either.\n\nIts like getting a GED, most companies do not really want to hire people who base their education on herzing colleges. Its like hiring someone with experience or with a certificate.

Oh my God!  I am a tremendously intuitive and spontaneous person.  I have switched not only jobs, but also careers several times based on intuition.  So far, so good!  Following my heart has led to great success.  Some time ago I learned that you should do what you love and the money will follow.  Even if the money doesn't follow you still get to do something you love, so that ain't half bad.  As far as my personal life goes, well I'm married and I think anyone who is married has to admit that intuition played a large role in the decision to take the big step.  Again - So far, so good!  Of course my intuition and my inclination to follow it has also created some problems from time to time.  I have on rare occasions placed too much trust in the wrong individual, but it hasn't bothered me that much.  After all once I figure it out I don't make the same mistake again but they have to live with themselves forever.

The fact that you feel the need to ask makes me believe that you have your doubts as to whether you are doing the right thing. Go with your gut.

Absolutely.  It will give you an edge over many other candidates.\n\nAs far as the utility is concerned, what do you want to do after you graduate?  That will determine your answer.

Yes, but you have to be patient and intuitive for them to work.  And they do not tell you what will happen to you.  They can only indicate what may happen if you continue your path without making any changes to your life.  Sometimes that can be good, sometimes that can be bad.  They are more of a guide.

Yes of course they are real. Keep in mind psychics do not only tell the future. They can also sense what is going on in your life at the moment, some can sense illnesses, some can communicate with those who have passed on, some can do healing, and so on. The list is endless. Some have multiple skills, some only have one skill.\n\nAlso every single person has the ability to be psychic, it just only means to be more aware of everything about yourself and your surroundings. It is not just limited to a select few. It just only takes a sincere desire to learn more about yourself and who you are. When you do that, your intuition just naturally improves over time. It just means you pay more attention to what comes to you and take notice.\n\nAlso just because one psychic is a scammer and uses its a form of con for money does not mean that all psychics are scammers. If one doctor is a bad doctor practicing bad medicine, does that mean all doctors are bad? It is just a a matter of using common sense about the person. They should empower you, not make you feel like you are helpless. They should communicate in very loving and a wise way, never in fearful statements. You should also feel good about the reading. \n\nThe word psychic has been applied to people who are not even that skilled. The skill level varies from person to person. I've had spontaneous psychic and clairvoyant moments, but I do not call myself psychic because that is a too heavy a responsiblity, and I in no way am going to mislead people with that word, you know what I am saying?

I've taken one with Texas Instruments. They were trying to find out character details mostly, although there were some intelligence questions. They often ask the same question a number of times, but in different ways/perspectives to see if the answers are consistent. So definitely answer true to your beliefs, because these tests are actually fairly reliable in determining if you will be a good fit for the company (that is if they have well defined and adhered to belief systems). If you don't match their profile, don't be upset, because you probably wouldn't have liked working there.

Yes. I actually am attending an online program.  The way you can tell if it is credible is if the school offers pell grants.  Pell grants are only offered to students in a credible college.  www.axiacollegeonline.com/  This is the school I attend, and they are associated with University of Phoenix.  The support there is great.

I went through Penn Foster when it was Tompson Highschool. I still get Penn Foster Continued Education flyers in the mail :P\nGo ahead and ask away, I still have all the books and finished tests and text from the program, etc.

I think going into college i was fairly open but still pretty sure of who i was and where i was going. Ive learned since ive been here that i really was not as open as i thought and that although i had mostly good intentions, i really did have much of an understanding of people unlike myself. Probably the best part of my experience so far in college is that i have learned to open up and experience many different slices of the human experience, instead of adhering to just one set path. Although there is a little more uncertainty now than when i arrived, ive learned how to think and been able to embrace more of the human condition than i ever would have been able to had i chosen not to attend college.

Chech first with the U.S. Department of Education and the Distance Education Training Council. Many schools now offer education on a distance learning mode. Most are legitimate, accredited institutions. Unfortunately, there are many others who operate as mere diploma mills, wherein you basically buy your diploma and you get nothing but a scrap of paper and a degree recognized by noone.\n\nAmong the recognized, legitimate, and leaders in the field are Penn Foster Career School, and Professional Career and Development Institute. Check them out at www.pennfoster.org, and www.pcdi.org. To check accreditation, log on to www.detc.org.

Hello Tiffany,\n\nI had my doubts about going but once I completed my AA I felt more confident about the online programs... It is a lot harder than a campus because you have to go at your on pace but stay focus and you will go far!\n\nJAM

If you are here asking this question, then you are not following your gut feeling.\nTrust your intuition, it usually correct.
