OK,

I was sitting on the PC in business studies today, and my two mates were sitting next to me saying stuff about when they leave school, like going to university and college and working for a really good company.. I was like... hmm OK.
They talked about it for a whole hour, and then I thought to myself what the fuck am I going to do when I leave school, I have given it no consideration and right now I feel like I have left it too late.
I would like to go to university, but I don't think I will have high enough grades or enough money to afford it. I really don't want to end up in a 9-5 job like everyone else, I want to study more and do something with my life. What did you guys do when you left school?

Well, as you i'm leaving school this year.

I'm gonna study translating-interpreting

man, i know exactly how that feels. ppl are always talking about how they've 100% planned out what they're gonna do once they are done with school, while im just like 'fuck... i have no fucking clue'. as long as your keep your options open i think you'll get a decent job.

Im going to college to become a Master electrician Its kinda nice cause in 3 years of schooling I will be making close to what some people make for going to school for 6 years. If all else fails join a tech school.

Well, I got into college, but I still don't know what I'm gonna do with my life. I just figured I'd work my ass of in highschool and now I can party and keep up semi-good grades here, because just having a good college on ur resume boosts up ur chances. I might go to grad school, but I still have no clue. If you really want something, good chances are you can get it, but you'll have to work extra hard, all by yourself. Researching what you need to get into where, doing extra work, I dunno, it's tough.

im fucked aswell although i dont reallly have to leave sixth form until next year although i want to leave this and get an apprenterpship

Your 14 right? so you most likely haven't even done your GCSEs yet you have nothing to worry about. Fuckin hell hardly anyone knows what they want to do when they get older i fucking don't . im at college now studing sociology, History and Media studies. What job are they gonna get me? i have no fucking clue and i couldn't give two fucks. Ive got no motivation to do anything life sucks and im having a shit day godd damm damm and know Bud doesn't help anything..

I'm fifteen, and it aint that I dont know what I want to be, It's that I don't know what to do when I leave year eleven.

if your motivation is shit like budas get an apprentership

Well these are you main options i think..

Go to a collage or sixform and do Alevels. If these are good you can then use them to get into Uni and work for a degree or some shit.

If you fuck up your GCSEs you might wanna resit them.

If your good at working with your hands and shit you could always go into a Modern Aprentership (sp)

Leave school and go out and get a Job.

im in my third and final year of college. when i left school i had no idea what i wanted to do! but my favourite thing of that time were my horses. so im now finishing my third year of horse studies then when i leave in july i have a job lined up to work with stunt horses.

try spking to one of them connection/career advisor ppl even tho they didnt give me any help

Same here. Any idea where you're going?

I just wrote out a very long, thoughtful response, but i lost my connection before i got a chance to post it so heres the jist of it.

First of all you need to relax. Plenty of people have no idea what their gonna do when they leave school.

If you get the grades and want to go to college but dont know what to do, try and pick something that is generally useful everywhere like business or it rather than things like biology which is only useful to a handful of specific occupations. Try and get an idea of at least the general area you want to go into then try and base it around that. If you dont get the grades, lie. A friend of mine in my class at college (in answer to your question, i went on to do a business course after i left school) only got two GCSE's and needed 5, so he made them up. He also told them he completed a course at another college, when he really dropped out halfway through the course. Like i said, he's in my class which means it could work for you

Or take a year out and join a job agency doing temp work, you'll get to do alot of different types of work so you might find something you like that way (Haha, i can't believe i'm advising someone on how to get a job, my mum would laugh if she read this)

But shit man, your 15 worry about it later.

i had no idea what to do when i left school.
try everything, even if u never considered it before thats my only advice.
i stayed on at 6th form, hated being talked down to like i was 13 still, so left, tried college, didnt enjoy it so left, tried working in the pine trade, too much hard work, and long hours, so left, got a job in a garage as a trainee mechanic, loved working with cars but it dawned on me i would never make big bucks doing it, so left, and im now working in a SCAM a croupier, which i love
wouldnt of thought of doing that while i was at school lol.
just try everything u see it cant hurt.!

After i graduated i went straight into college and i am almost done with my first year. looking to major in recreational therapy because it is only 3 years of classes and 1 year internship. plus you start out with good pay and benefits.
