Highschool or Vocational High School?
826474
ONLY ONE of my friends of those that attended vocational schools ever did anything worth mentioning; the others are still driving buses or working in Sanitation or working as Maintainers (repair work) in the subway systems or still working in garages as grease-monkeys.  That one person who did this is my buddy of 43 years who also made the sacrifice of going to college and he struggled because of his poor academic skills that he received in vocational school but he buckled down and studied harder and persevered until he got his BA and he is now in a Supervisory position.  My buddy is the exception to the rule, but the exception does NOT make the rule...!\n\nBecause of his college degree and the dogged way of studying and passing exams, he is the youngest and the only one of the supervisors that went up the hierchical ladder because of his college degree, except for a couple of incompetent fools who have cronies in positions of "power" within the Transit system, and those nincompoops are always making a mess of things (they're going to be in a heap of trouble once my buddy retires)!\n\nConsider this: years of being a minor: 21 years; years of being an adult: THE REST OF YOU LIFE!  If you "sacrifice" a few more years (and, believe me, these years will seem to go by so quickly), and you also sacrifice some time away from fun-times, you will have a more comfortable adulthood afterward if you settle into a comfortable routine of studying and getting your work done on time; you will develop good study habits and develop the academic skills to enable you to do well in college, which will prepare you for whatever you wish to do for the rest of your life, and that's an awfully long time!  I speak from experience. \n\nSmart people learn from their mistakes; WISE people learn from the mistakes of others.  WHAT do you prefer to do?

Sorry but I'd say it's the opposite.  High school, in no way, is an operative example of everyday life post those 4 years.

A high school diploma states that you were able to make it through four years of high school and pass. A ged says you have high school level knowledge, however you werent able to attend school and or pass.\n\nAs long as you go to college you shouldnt have to worry.

Decide what you want to do and go back to school. It doesn't have to be a 4 year deal. Vocational schools can have you out in as little as 5 months to a year.

you should be able to access the high school curriculum from your l.e.a. (local education authority)...work from this and you can't go wrong....hope this helps

What school do you think is going to be better for you academically? Also, if yo know what field you are going to go into, which one has a better handle of that area?\n\nAlso, remember that you are probally going to make new friends. Maybe you should go to the school wwhere 5 of your friends are going, because you and your best friend are mostl likely going to keep in touch no matter what. Do you also really want to be clinging to one person as you adjust to high school? What if you have no classes together? \n\nBut in the end, it's really up to you.

High School Diploma, you can do it. Don't think negative always have a positive attitude and you will come out on top. Finishing High School is something you will only get to do once and it's a great memory.

Without a High School diploma, your opportunties with certainly be limited.  Most employers won't even consider someone without a HS diploma.  If you don't have a diploma, a GED would at least get you in the door.

I second the opinion of the second poster.  Keystone National High School is an excellent school.  My son has taken several courses through the school and plans to graduate from it.  Keystone is completely non-religious, which was my most important reason for choosing it.

Pharmacy is more chemistry oriented. For medical, you will have to take it to know which medications to prescribe, but the majority of your studies will be biology and anatomy.  Try speaking with a counselor at your school, they can help alot =]

I would say Navy, also check out the Air Force. You have to get your High School Diploma or equivalent (GED) to join the armed forces. So either catch up you credits or you can get your GED.

why can't you do both, then you would be ahead of the competition once you get to high school. You have some time, don't get stressed about it when it only your 7th grade year. RELAX and think it through, make a pro con list for each. Maybe you could talk to a high school cheerleader or a coach and ask them.
