Honestly, college is a waste of time. I can never recommend it to anyone.
Before you jump onto my case and respond in rage let me finish!
Colleges force you to take classes that you already took in high school, English, Math specifically and having multiple of these classes. While great if you haven't been in high school for a long time. Waste of money when you just left. Then you get to take the courses for whatever field you want to get into and you must be in college for around 4 years. They are highly expensive forcing students who just got out of high school to get loans and scholarships. So the government be like "Oh you want to be a doctor? Well go to these colleges that cost thousands of dollars! And please put yourself in debt that you'll work on removing over several years! Then you can start earning money for yourself!" Then it doesn't offer you any advantages cause College Degrees are now a standard compared to a long time ago. So if there was 4 people applying for the same job, all equally qualified and same amount of education, the order of who would get hired first to last are...Black Women, Black Men, White Women, White Men.
Meanwhile you can cut all the crap from college and go to a technical school for half the time, get a certificate and start working. And all you have to do is renew your license every 2 or so years (give or take 1). I completed CIS 1 and 2 and got my CISCO Certificate for completing the courses. Then take a $50 and get a license to go into Computer Networking jobs. Best part was, I was able to go to a technical school while going to high school. So as soon as I graduated, I could actually take the test and start working being ahead of everyone else who chose to go to college and I would only be out $50. Of course I could have taken an architecture like class and build houses, work on welding, work on being a mechanic, work on being a nurse. And these were just some of the classes I could had chosen. Essentially a lot fields that are heavily needed.
