WORTH READING - Steve Jobs: You've Got to Find What You Love

Emiry · Advanced

As a high school senior I found that very helpful. Why? Because it's true.
Mom keeps asking what I going to do if I am unsuccessful at getting into a pre-vet program I am trying to get into. I told her, working and volunteering, because I am NOT, going to the local university and collage and doing the general degree or whatever it's called. Why? Because I would hate it, and probably skip most of the time. Not to mention wasting four years of my loans.

Gotta agree with you Em. I've avoided four-year universities here for that very reason. I get bored easily, and I'm not going to waste $100k+ and 4 years of my life doing something I thought would be fun a few years ago. I've decided a more unconventional approach (U of Guelph's ESC program) is more suitable to my style of learning. It's doing what I love, not what will "get me somewhere". Granted, I fully believe that I'll be successful in this route, so yes in a way it will get me somewhere, but the point being, I'm not going to become a doctor just so I can live monetarily comfortably ;)
