hi, im 17 a jr in high school i dont no what i want to be when i get out of high school . HELP?

Question

HELP ME PLEASE WITH MY DISITION.

Answer 1

yup just what are your interests/hobbies/things that make you happy? you gotta have that one thing that makes you feel proud or happy with life. base your career around that =)
for example, helping others & poking them with needles makes me happy- I'M GONNA BE A DOCTOR!

Answer 2

Well, I must say that by the time you are this far along in your education, you should know better grammar and language skills...
But, there is absolutely nothing wrong with being undecided.
I am currently a senior in high school and still undecided between radiology and psychology. A lot of people have no clue until their senior year. Even if you do choose something you will likely change your mind a hundred times.
There is no rule that says you have to know what you're going to do when you graduate. You can change majors in college if you want to. Some people even start college with their major listed as "undecided".
You can, however, make a list of hobbies and decide what your strongest subject is at this point. That may help you come up with some ideas.
Don't worry...you're going to be fine.

Answer 3

If you really dont know, you should check out the military.

Not the marines, if you dont know, it's definantly not the marines. But army, navy, air force could all be great for you, even if you don't know what job you want, they'll give you a test to show your strengths, you can choose one of those or pick almost any other job if you have average brain power.

Most people think joining the military means being the guy out front looking for bad guys to risk a deathmatch with, but that's not true!

Many jobs will get you a free college education in the job you choose (as a pre-requisite before you even go into duty they'll send you to college) and all jobs will offer you money for college. Most will give you experience in a field you can take to the civilian world....lots of oportunities in a small area. Something to check out.

and no im not a recruiter ;)

Answer 4

Talk to your school counselor about testing to see where your strengths are.

Also, please spend more time on learning to spell... the word is DECISION! You'll do much better in life if you spell things correctly. Bad spelling makes people think you are stupid, and since Yahoo has a spell checker online for Answers, you were shown that the word was misspelled because Yahoo put a red line under the misspelled word!

Kids who go to college often don't know what they want to do after college, so your not knowing is not surprising.

There should be a school psychologist who could do testing to see what your strengths are. If that's not available, talk to your school counselor and discuss what things you really like to do. That's the basis of finding out what you are good at and should work at.

Answer 5

You need to think about things you have really enjoyed doing in the past. Look for a few things and try to look for the "common denominator" - the thing that each of these enjoyable tasks or achievements had in common. If you can find that, you just need to start looking for careers or jobs that incorporate some of that into what you are expecting to do for them, then you are more likely to enjoy that job or career. If you can figure out what tasks you enjoyed or what part of these things you liked, you can ask in this category again or over in Careers and someone might be able to suggest what careers incorporate the elements you enjoy. Most people do try a few jobs or fields of study before finding the one they are going to stick with anyway ;).

Answer 6

college is the only option you should be considering. there are so many programs out there(government, scholarships) to help you with costs if that is a factor. IF your grades werent great you may have to go to a community college first and then transfer. You wont have to pick a major the first two years and this will give you time to decide what you really like. College is very important and it will be hard to attend later on down the road. this is the best time to do it and its worth it!

Answer 7

First of all don't worry. I went to school for pharmacy and I just graduated for a diploma in esthetics (I am 30) so I can do both. You will figure it out as you go. Take 6-12 months off if necessary to find out what you enjoy. This will give you a chance to explore options and make money for school in the process

Answer 8

Well if that's really how you spell I hope they don't let you graduate. But aside from that, don't sweat it, a lot of people still don't know what they want to do even after college. If you can't think of what you want to study in college, I would suggest that you either get a bit of work experience or take just a few courses at a community college or do both.

Answer 9

don't worry you still time to decide,take out a pen and paper and write down the things that interest you.Then write a paragraph or two about yourself,Make it look like a profile.You are trying to let someone else know what you are interested in. Read it over,and then see what type of jobs you are interested in.You can also use a parent friend or school counselor to help you out.Many people offer themselves as "interns" to help out on radio,stations.libraries,etc. to get a feel of what really interests them.

Answer 10

Joining the Military is always a good choice when you don't know what you want to be... it gives you a chance to grow up a little and gain experiences that will give you an Idea of what you like to do and what you are good at... plus college education paid for.
