I'm from the US and I went to a high school in an affluent, upper-middle class town. We were basically taught from day one freshman year that the was no other option except to go to college. Our 'guidance counselors' were only there to help seniors with their college applications. I think this is a huge disservice and if I ever have kids I'm going to stress that they do NOT have to go to college right after HS or ever. How many people waste a Bachelor's degree because they were forced to pick a major when they were 18?
