“So, what are you doing after graduation?” 71 However, you have to make up your mind as your last high school year begins. Whether your plans include college, heading straight for the workforce, or taking a year off, here are some practical tips to prepare yourself for the journey.
Going to College
Some people know from an early age exactly what they want to be and how they plan to get there. 72 According to a recent survey, 75% of students change their majors after they enter college. After all, school is also not just about careers and getting a high-paying job after graduation — it’s a place for learning about yourself and the world.
Selecting a School
If college is in your future, you need to plan. Start by asking yourself questions about your preferences. 73 Once you’ve narrowed down your choices, ask the schools to send you literature or visit their websites.
Getting a Job
Maybe you’ve decided that college isn’t for you — right now, anyway. If you want to join the workforce, opportunities are out there for people who don’t have degrees. Some products-selling or service industry organizations offer training programs to high school graduates. Search the classified ads in the newspaper and do some Internet research. 74
Taking Time Off
What if you intend to go to college but just don’t feel ready to start yet, for whatever reason? __75 This practice is common in some countries, like the United Kingdom, where it’s called a “gap year”. Even if you decide not to apply to college, it can be a great idea to take a year to do something you may not have an opportunity to do again. Lots of volunteer organizations would welcome your time and energy and would provide you with a wonderful learning experience.
A. You might want to get a high-paid job first.
B. You might want to take a year off to pause.
C. This is the fact that young people have to take into consideration.
D. Most large companies list their job openings on their websites.
E. Not all of us are so sure of our plans, though, and that’s OK too.
F. Many juniors and seniors get bored answering that question over and over.
G. Ask friends in college about their schools and other schools they’re familiar with.
