Career questions tagged event-planning
Hi! I am a senior in high school and I am planning on becoming an event planner. I have been accepted into many programs for this career and waiting on my #1 choice. My #1 choice is a prestigious school with lots of internship connections and study abroad. I really like a few smaller private schools that I have toured but they do not have majors specific to my career path. I would have to do communications or general business. Should I go with specific and prestigious (if I get in) or is a general degree at a smaller school just as good?

Job possibilities ?
I am wanting to be an event planner but I know that that requires weekends and nights. I don’t mind that right now, but if I would like to have a family one day I would want a 9-5 job.

Should I take small engine repair?
My school has a semester elective called small engine repair. I learn to tune up and fix small engines like ATVs, motorcycles, lawn mowers, etc. Once the class is over, I would be able to fix small engines around my neighborhood, where I can get really good money. But then I will have to take a class in the summer to catch up on credits. Is it worth it? I do think it would be a fun and easy class. I can also take intro to automotive where I learn about engines in cars. What's my best choice? Will the class help me in college/career of mechanical/robotics/aerospace engineering?
