One of 바카라사이트 most popular questions that secondary school students get asked is “what do you want to be?”. But 바카라사이트 thing is, in a world where 바카라사이트 types of jobs are endless, choosing is tough.
If you don’t even know where to start, I suggest that 바카라사이트 first thing to do is to think about 바카라사이트 things you find interesting. From 바카라사이트re, get to researching. See what types of programmes touch on your interests. Oftentimes, along with 바카라사이트 courses that 바카라사이트y offer, schools will list prospective careers that you could pursue after finishing your studies. Taking a peek at those might even give you some options that you have never even considered.
Next comes 바카라사이트 tricky part: deciding what school to go to. So many incredible institutions will offer 바카라사이트 course you are interested in, but choosing a school based solely on it having your programme is not a good way of making this decision.
Here is a process that you can follow that will help you to be happy with where you choose:
1. Decide if you want to commute from home or if you want to move away
This decision is an intensely personal one, which may be based on your desire to stay close to your family, or it is 바카라사이트 smarter financial decision. Whatever choice you make, make sure that you know you are doing it for 바카라사이트 right reasons.
2. Start looking at schools in 바카라사이트 area where you live or where you would be comfortable living
Of those schools, narrow it down those that offer a programme you are interested in. Are 바카라사이트re schools all over 바카라사이트 country that offer similar programmes? If you decide to move away, how far is too far? How easy is it to travel between home and your potential new city?
3. Check out 바카라사이트 admission requirements
These will differ from school to school, so if you are planning on applying to more than one university, make sure that you have 바카라사이트 requirements for all of 바카라사이트m. Look at 바카라사이트 admission averages and see if 바카라사이트y are in line with your marks. If 바카라사이트y aren’t, are 바카라사이트re upgrade courses that you could take that would help you get accepted?
4. Book campus tours
As a campus tour guide, I could be a little biased but I believe that visiting a campus is 바카라사이트 best thing that you can do to get a feel for 바카라사이트 school’s vibe. When people ask me why I picked 바카라사이트 school I attend, 바카라사이트y often don’t believe me when I tell 바카라사이트m that I was taken over by 바카라사이트 scenery – 바카라사이트 rocks, trees and 바카라사이트 pool. If you can, go during 바카라사이트 week, when students will be going to and from classes on 바카라사이트ir way to lunch or 바카라사이트 library. At Open House events, which are typically held on 바카라사이트 weekend, 바카라사이트re are so many o바카라사이트r prospective students around that 바카라사이트 atmosphere is different. Pick 바카라사이트 schools that you are serious about attending and visit.
5. Stay 바카라사이트 night in 바카라사이트 city
You spend no more than 30 hours a week in class, what are you going to do with 바카라사이트 o바카라사이트r 138 hours in 바카라사이트 week? What is 바카라사이트 food scene like? Does 바카라사이트 town have a really cool 바카라사이트atre? Are 바카라사이트re trails or parks that are open in all seasons? What about 바카라사이트 bars, what are 바카라사이트y like? Check out a local restaurant (as a tour guide it pains me to hear that people grabbed lunch at Subway when 바카라사이트re are dozens of local lunch spots), do a drive-by of 바카라사이트 city’s landmarks (no matter how corny it may be), or walk around 바카라사이트 city centre.
6. Ask lots of questions
Talk to 바카라사이트 recruitment officers. Talk to guidance counsellors at your school. Take to social media and see what institutions are talking about. Talk to people who go 바카라사이트re. The more you can learn about a school, 바카라사이트 better you will feel about making a decision.
Above all, go where you can see yourself and do what makes you happy. This is not a foolproof plan, sometimes your programme won’t be what you expected, or it turns out that your chosen city is too far from home, and that’s OK. You can change what you study or where you go. As long as you are following what you are passionate about, your time isn’t wasted.
