This is an excellent question. But there is no one right answer. First, do you enjoy learning in a school environment? Do you like to read, do assignments, discuss and share your ideas, work in teams, challenge other people's ideas, etc? While college can be a wonderful experience for many people, it is not for everyone. It also depends what you want to study and learn about. If you want a hands-on career or job, like being an electrician, plumber, IT person, you do not necessarily need a college degree. A trade school is a great option for someone who wants to start their working life earlier, build their skills, and work in the field. But the same can be said about an architect or engineer. Also, there is the financial aspect of going to college after you graduate versus going to work and building your trade. And you can always do both.

Greetings Habib,
From the previous answers, I hope you get the sense that there is no better or worse. It depends on your career/life direction. Please know that others may feel 'better or lesser', but our society needs both types of continued learning. Chelsea's answer provides a good contrast between the two types.

Trade is often the path to follow if you're keen on honing a specific skill set and earning certifications or licenses. On the other hand, school provides a broader education, ideal for those seeking a comprehensive degree. Both routes offer valuable opportunities, so choose the one that aligns best with your personal and career goals!
