If you think a college education gets you nowhere...

College is really great today, for those that have a clear picture of what they want to do, what the markets need. Not so good for those that think they need college to get a job over $30k. Most will fail, with difficult debt ratio.

Truth is, today both students and parents of HS grads should evaluate carefully. If in top 25% and wanting college, go for it. Consider costs. Perhaps jr. college can fill in the prerequisites.

Top half, 'really, really' consider jr college. Not just for the costs, but for exposing one to subjects and effort that may have been missing earlier. Need help in writing? It's there, get your butt down to the help.

Want to go to college, your teachers told you that was the way to succeed, but you fall in lower 1/2 of class. Now it's more on YOU than anyone else. Why are you in lower 1/2? Was it language or lack of effort? You're not being graded and there are not gimmee points. So, fess up to yourself, no reason to be honest with everyone. But YOU must recognize. If you can do the work? That is what IS great about America. At 19 or 20, one decides to work their butt off. You can.

OTOH, you realize after a few semesters in jr college, that the reading, writing, math are beyond your background. You want to succeed, but this doesn't seem the route. So? Go to 'career counseling,' they've tens of suggestions for those with talents that are outside of academics. Truth is, this is really where jr colleges shine.
