Getting Out Of College

[ActualFacts]

I do have goals and all that, I'm normal just like most people but with them problems, I don't show my problems in public. It's probs just nerves kicking in and all that.

You should go to college, it'll teach you more stuff and the tutor treats you like adults!

[Alexx..]

Just go, what have you got to lose really? You might enjoy it, I thought the same as you that I wouldn't make friends and stuff and I'm incredibly nervous around people but I made some friends. Granted, I dropped out after a few months but I'm going back to a new college. Just go, if you're doing a BTEC you'll be in the same class with the same people so it's most likely you'll make some friends in there.

Friends aren't that important. Sure they keep you entertained but the money and the 40+ years of employment are much better.

Even though college can be a pain in the arse but in the long run it will be worth it but if you want to go to a BTEC go for it if you're 100% sure thats what you want to do.

Stick with it IMO, you'll get a better job in the future so you don't really have anything to lose, you could even move on to Uni and get a far better job in 3/4 years time.

Right so I don't want to go to College anymore, I'm 16 and tbh with you about this, I've done my time at School and going to College is just going to be a pain in the arse, It'll be hard to make new friends and I'm fine with the friends that I have anyway and also the work is going to be harder. I've tried to tell my parents but they arn't really listening to what I want.

What shall I do?

Since when in life do you just stop something because you think it's going to be hard... I think you're view on it is somewhat pathetic. What else are you going to do for two years? Get a paper round? as there aren't many employees who will take a sixteen year old on

Don't fail on your future

I'd say go college. I thought the same as you but I've done 2 courses at college since leaving school (2 years in total) and I'm going to do another course in September which last 2 years. I've met a lot of new friends and it's flew by. If you want a dead-end job stacking shelves in Asda then don't worry about college, but if you want a good job then I think you should consider college.
