Should I take classes that I enjoy or ones that will help me in the future?
At my school, we can take special classes out of the school, like nursing prep, horticulture, culinary, etc. that I'm interested in. I'm torn between multiple though, Culinary, Horticulture, Agriculture, and Educational Careers. Would it be smarter to take the class that will be more beneficial to me in the future, or should I take one that I enjoy that will make my high school more enjoyable? As of now, I think I want to be a teacher and horse trainer/riding instructor, so educational careers or agriculture would probably be the most beneficial, but I also love plants and cooking, so those would probably make my days better and more enjoyable. This also goes for classes in the school. For example, math. I don't think I'd be a math teacher if I do become a teacher, but I'm pretty good at math and am in the fast-pace math. I'll probably stay in it, but I doubt I'd need much of the more high-level math in my future, so should I take it easy and take the slower one or challenge myself and take the fast-pace one?
