I was originally planning on going into Computer Science, but I heard from a few teachers and students that there won't be a high demand for it because so many students are going into that field now. Last year at my school, there was one AP computer science class. This year, there are seven AP...

I'm really enjoy looking at cars, and everything about them. I plan on majoring in mechanical engineering, and I was just wondering what steps I should take to become in the engineer life. #mechanical-engineering

I am pursuing a career in Theatre.

I am applying to colleges to pursue a degree in Theatre Arts/Musical Theatre. #experience #music #musical-theatre #theatre #live-theatre

So I'm pretty smart and have a GPA high enough to get me into a pretty solid college, but I'm worried about the cost and the student loans I would amass. So I was wondering how I would find a balance between both a good education and a good price, but not suffering in either, and in a...

I'm looking for a job as a high schooler and I was wondering if changing certain things about my social media may help my chances of getting a job. I don't post anything questionable or swear, but are there steps to improve my social media to appear more "professional"? #career #school...

I want to know some ways people have gone about balancing sports and studying during high school as sometimes i feel like I'm unable to do both at the same time. #sports #school #time-management

I'm a decent runner, not the best on my team or in the area, but in the top percents. Could this help me significantly, or is it more dependent of academic ability? And this is for just getting in, not scholarships. #college #sports #college-admissions #high-school

I want to major in Psychology, but I'm not sure what careers follow this path #psychology

I was wondering if there are any ways for me to get a head-start on Psycology during high-school #psychology #college-major #college-majors

I'm going into my junior year of high school and I'm taking a AP US History class. A lot of people in my school say its very challenging, but i'm pretty good at history. Anyways, does anyone have some advice on how to handle this class? Thanks

I want the money from having a job, but I'm worried that I couldn't fit one in. I'm taking 3 AP classes and I normally have As and Bs and I'm also part of the cross country and track teams, do you think I could handle adding a part-time in? #job #high-school #time-management

I'm going into my junior year of high school this summer and was wondering, when trying to get a part-time, summer job as a 16 year old, what is the best way to seem distinguished and be preferable over the competition? #job-search #high-school #summer

I'm currently trying to decide on what I will major in and I'm confused by all of the different types and numerous options, how can I figure out which one would be best for me?

P.S I plan on working in Psychology or counseling #psychology #college-major #counseling

I will be a freshman at Michigan State University to study civil engineering this fall. I have also been accepted into the Honors College at this school, which requires me to complete at least eight honors courses. I do not want to saddle myself with too many classes, but I also know that...

I hear potential students complain about why they are not in the career that they want to be in or complain about not making the amount of money they want to make. The main thing that irritates me is that they expect things to be given to them like society owes them. I was always taught that...

Should I visit before I apply, like in the summer after my junior year? Or after I apply and get accepted?
Because why would I visit a place that might not accept me? #campus-visit #college-admissions #college-selection

I know that public colleges in Illinois are required to accept 3's on AP exams, which I might have gotten, but I also hear that private colleges can offer more financial aid.
At which type of college would I end up saving more money? #financial-aid #ap-exam

I have seen very successful Bar and Grills in slow and very busy locations. How do you, or how did you decide on where to build your Bar? What do you look for in a customer base and how did you get them coming back? #business #real-estate #restaurants

I have always wanted to own and operate my own bar and grill. I have been working in the food service industry since high school, and am now getting the business background I want to help insure I understand the ins and out of the business world. I have asked a few local successful Bar owners...

I am currently stuck between three different majors because they are all so similar. I know what career I want to pursue but I also know that it might take a while to get there. I want to make sure that I am choosing the right major so I can have enough versatility and not be at a stand still,...

I really need money both for college and for my pockets. I've heard people say not to get a job as soon as you start college and to wait until you get settled in and I've heard the exact opposite.

I have a fear of my age may deny me some opportunities in my new degree field and was wondering if I do go for my masters would it benefit me more at my age. #human-resources

I am an adult learner and am a little older than most in switching careers. I am a Navy Veteran and served my country for 12 years and finally decided to pursue a degree where I can help people. #college #business #career #career-counseling #human-resources

My instructor told us that we don't get certification in our program because "you can't certify talent." That being said, how do I know when my skills are adequate? What kind of training is most important for a graphic designer- knowledge in the software, artistic skill, or raw creativity?...

Is it better for a graphic designer specifically to work freelancing from home or AT a business, for a business? What are the pros and cons to both? I know this is the career field I want to enter, but I'm not sure what the best way to go about it is. Thanks! #design #graphics
