Should I go to college??

Question:Hi, I'm from the UK, just going into Year 10 but already thinking about what to do when I finish school.
My sister left straight away and got a good job that pays well.
But I don't know whether to do that or to go to college.
Which one would be better and why??

Answers:
Go to college, lots of people choose not to but then don't get lucky like your sister. Going to college always looks good on resumes and if you were to have job problems in the future and something didn't work out, you would always have your college education to fall back on.
GO TO COLLEGE!
Go to college...it will pay off later.
go to college, alot of people put it off and then end up not going
A college education will ALWAYS open more doors for you. It is important to go right after high school so that you are still young when you finish. GO to COLLEGE. No question about it.
Whatever you might want to do as a career will help you decide. If you think you might want to have a job in the sciences, law, medicine, teaching, writing, etc. you should go to college. Only if you instead really wish to do things that require only practice, and not typically education (i.e. hair stylist, food service employee, etc.) would college be a waste of your time and money.
I would go to collage. It will benifit you in the future.
personally, i think college is your best route unless you immediately find a good paying job right out of school, like your sister. don't leave school without a specific plan. you'll be lost. good luck.
Go, otherwise you'll be like a friend of mine who got screwed later on in life and is stuck working at a job that only pays $7 an hour.
College dont help nuthin (just fishing for thumbs-down, duh, hell yeah go to college if at all possible).
if you are going into a trade.carpenter, steelworker, etc...you don't need college, but if you want a business, education,engineering, etc you will need a degree, even better an advanced degree..
Definitely go to college! You will earn a rewarding degree and then you will be able to pursue your goals easily!

go to colleage.if did't you are going to miss every thing in your life.
i highly recomend going to college becuz ur going to need it for a good job, experience, ur going to be stronger, ppl are going to look for u if u have high grades...

however education is only a tool in life, theres alot more ways to make money but studying is a sure way of making money... and its better if u love ur job
A degree will help you advance more quickly and get payrises faster. It also helpss if you decide to travel for work.

In the end, after about 10 years, it will all be about esperience instead.
with a college degree you are more likly to succede in life and make at the least 3 times as much as someone who didnt go to college. thats one reason you should go.
Three options Luv.

College
Technical School
Military Service

You will probably need one of the three, and one choice is as good as the other. Just trusting to luck and native ability to land a good job is rather risky.

Unless you have a skill that is in demand, you will find your options limited if you have nothing beyond a secondary school education.

Look at your sister and her good job. Does she have the opportunity t advance? Or will she be stuck in the same position because she is not qualified to advance?

If you don't want to pursue an academic career at the moment that is no problem, choose a trade and attend a technical school to learn the trade, or enlist in the military and let the Queen teach you a trade.

If you need it to advance in your chosen career, you can always go to college later.

Good Luck with your choices.

No duh you should go to college because you'll make more money than your sister.
