How can I become a CNA ( without any expensive funds) as a 17 year old who's school doesn't offer CNA classes, & with limited resources ? My local community college offers it but it cost almost 2000$, any opportunities!?

I want to become a CNA / take classes and have a license, to build up for my devotion for healthcare / nursing in the future. I truly believe this experience will give me the expertise and help me to where I want to be! I appreciate any help and advice.

After college, how do you start looking for careers in a professional field that matches your degree? Is it an easy process?

I'm going into veterinary medicine, and I'm concerned that I will not be able to easily find a job after I graduate from school, and that I will not be able to find a related job between college and veterinary school.

How much harder are STEM Courses in college compared to Business courses in College?

I've always heard from friends who are in engineering or computer science that they have such a heavy workload, and when I compare it to my accounting classes, it almost looks similar. Are many STEM courses that heavy compared to business courses?

I love writing and am interested in pursuing it, but I'm unsure what my future would look like if I took writing seriously, and I don't want to make the wrong choice.

I love writing personal essays and stories, but what kind of career can I make out of that? I also love to cook / bake, but its always been a hobby. Now I'm not sure if I should think about taking it more seriously. I don't want to waste time by making the wrong decision about what I want to do.

What sort of advice would you give to someone who is looking to work with sick children if that person is very sensitive; regardless of that weakness, they have a strong passion and love for kids and that’s the only career they see themselves with for the long term?
