Is going to college silly?....

Question: What is the best advice you can give someone thinking of going to college?

Answer: This a good question. I assume that you have a particular career in mind that you are pursuing. College is never a bad thing which is why I would say go. However keep in mind that no matter what college you attend or what education degree obtain, you will still need to practice. With that being said may I also recommend that you go work for a company in the field of your interest to see if it is something you still want to pursue.

Example: Let us assume that you want to be a lawyer/attorney. Obtain a job as a secretary in order to gain basic work experience and to absorb the culture of the environment. If you have time on your side (meaning you’re under 24 years old) then this is the optimal strategy. Make sure you do your absolute best regardless of the position. Good luck!

I hope this makes sense to you all.
