1.) Did you or did you not go to school?

I am currently attending SLCC (SLC Community College.)

2.) If not, are you happy with your decision? If so, was it worth it?

If I wasn't attending college I know all I would be doing is working at jobs that I didn't like.

3.) Would you change whatever your decision was (go to school/not go to scool) now that you are in the "real life" working?

NO! I am very glad that I am going to school. Like you my parents and others who have a large influence in my life have reinforced to me that college is where its at. I agree with that. In a sociology class that I took the professor threw out some number as to salarys and compared them to those would didn't go to college and those who did. The was a huge difference in salary from one to the other. Obviously those who attended college were making more money.

4.) For those that didn't finish college, what types of careers are you pursuing? Are you satisfied with the success you've attained/ income level/ quality of life?

I haven't finished yet. But my suggestion would be like what Delsolgirl said. Take a variety of classes and see what interests you. You said that you like cars. Ask your self what you want to do with them. Work on them? Sell them? etc.... Then when you have decided that talk to a counselor at school and have them help you plan a course of action. Honestly if you work hard and go to school it will pay off. Now there are people out there that haven't gone to school and do very well. But if you ask them they will say that they were very lucky and most importantly that they would have gone if they could do it again. Although Nightshade had a good point, he said that school isn't for him. Why waste your money and time if you aren't going to take it seriously. Hope everything works out for you though.
