Going back i would suggest to me that i strive harder to improve my educational experience and its ok to stumble and fall as long as you get up dust yourself off and keep moving forward after high school it gets so much easier to grow and learn there are people out there in the real world who want to give you every possible tool you need to get through college just take that leap and go for it don't wait until your older do it now.

If I was able to go back in time and talk to myself I would explain some of the hardships I have had to face, such as sacrificing time with my family in order to get homework done. I would point out to myself that for me it would be better to be in a classroom setting than to try and do online courses and teach myself what I was suppose to learn. It would have been cheaper also if I had gone to college right out of high school. I am not sure if by telling myself all of this if it really would have mattered because I was pretty bull headed and thought I knew more about what I wanted to do with my life than anyone else. I could possibly be working in a corporate position by now instead of that being my goal upon graduation. Valuable time and oppertunities was wasted because I did not persue what I should have done with the time that was given to me.

I would tell myself to save as much money as possible, and don't get any credit cards. I think that is the best advice that I could've gotten when I graduated from high school. Trying to apply those two things to life would make things a lot easier as you get older.

I went into the military before going to college so I would tell myself to study harder and to go right to school instead of waiting.

Make sure the school is internationally recognized for your degree program. Keep in mind what type of employment needs you have before attending a school in a certain area. Explore online options as well; they can help with the class load. Make sure you live a balanced lifestyle, work, school, and social are all important, but your degree is what is going to open up the career doors in the long run. During college try to get internships for what you believe you want to do. I know so many people that do not use their degree or got it just to have one. Specializing in a certain field usually gives someone a competitive edge in that area.

If I could go from a 1.62 in high school and after a year plus of NAU and still maintain a 4.0, your child can also. I have gained so much from this school, go for it. They make a difference.
