-- Posted by Emzi x at 3:06 pm on Sep. 30, 2008 I went to college last year, first year of A level, and it was very disrupted. Now I've started my second year of A2 but I really want to take a year out and get a job. I just can't stand it. I like some of my lessons but I've already got job interviews. I really want to get a job but the only problem is my mum- she really wants me to stay at college! I need to make a decision, fast. What should I do? Help   -- Posted by Wakeupcall at 3:07 pm on Sep. 30, 2008 Get a part time job that fits around your timetable? -- Posted by BleedingSteelWings at 3:07 pm on Sep. 30, 2008 I don't know. Maybe both. that's what loads of people here in Newfoundland do it. -- Posted by Emzi x at 3:08 pm on Sep. 30, 2008 Yes but I can't find a part time job to suite my college timetable- its too full on. -- Posted by Scandol5Mossie at 3:09 pm on Sep. 30, 2008 listen to your mommy -- Posted by Emzi x at 3:10 pm on Sep. 30, 2008 I'm still going to go to college- just take a year out and get a job. We're a pretty poor family and the money will be useful -- Posted by tell me again at 3:14 pm on Sep. 30, 2008 It's important to make your own informed decision, and not just do something because your mum says so. But do consider all the reasons before you make a choice. If it's just because you want extra money, but your family gets by, I think it's worth just sticking it out until you graduate. On the other hand, if you don't think college will benefit you and you don't like it, then it's reasonable to not do it. -- Posted by switchfoot52 at 3:19 pm on Sep. 30, 2008 does ur school have work study? maybe u can get a job that has really small hours.
