Do you think I could ever get a job in computing?

[Bouncing]

Yeah basically, Im in to computing but the thing is I cant think what Im really good at? I can work them very well, but I just bought an apple and I really like it but I am in to photography but still trying to learn all the tricks with photoshop, but I really want to get in to CSS and web design but I just cant get my head around CSS. It all sounds (when I read tutorials) complicated, I try to make graphics on adobe photoshop but I always have problems with make pictures transparent etc. Im decent at things like garageband like I had never really used it but my sister sang a song and I added a backing track and edited a few things to make it sound really good, but I suppose can't really get far with that. Im also quite good at video editing, but still all seems like just a few little cool things I can do, nothing really amazing and what'll get me somewhere.
What do you think? Don't resist saying nowhere, find something else to be good at. Just say what you think

What you need to do is take A Levels and GCSEs in Media for video editing etc... or IT and Computing for site coding, program coding etc..

But Media, IMO, is a waste of time, think about it, how likely is it, that you will get to be some kind of movie editor or something? Chances are extremely slim.

Ye the best thing instead of taking just media take a specialised subject of media. A good example of this is a photography course.

A good course i took was music technology this invloved alot useing computers to record, mixdown and create midi tracks ect. this also used the industry standared softwear protools so it was also handy if i ever wanted to go into editing as i know quite a bit about it.

I recommend getting a GNVQ or some sort in ICT. Then take it from there..

Yeah, but my school doesn't do media until six form when you can go to other schools at the same time for different subjects.

Go to college or university, get a real job - that's what they said to me.

Im happy my school doesn't do DiDA, I would have taken it, then found out one of these:

1. I was useless at it
2. Its deathly boring
3. Its not going to get me anywhere

One quick tip, if you're hoping to get into web development and you're quite young then start now BUT keep a portfolio of ALL your work. It'll come in handy when you want to apply for a job in the future as the more work you've produced when you're yonger the better.
