Expecting people to confidently pick their life course by 18 is pretty silly. The ability to flex and explore as you grow into adulthood in college is very valuable. And you can do it while learning very useful skills and topics (as the above commenter did).
- Dalewyn 4y agoThe time to "grow into adulthood" is during your school years. If you don't have a decently clear idea of where you want to go in life, it's probably not a good idea to take on a 5- or even 6-digit debt. Once you figure out what your life goal is, /then/ see about going to college if that's on the way to achieving your goal. The widespread notion that everyone must go to college, including for no good reason, is nonsense. College isn't the end all be all to life.
