    m8 what are you interested in? Im gessing prolly computers as your posting on here anyway. What i suggest you do is look for an IT recruitment agency (check to see if they do IT courses with it) and try n get yourself a part / full time job doing something IT'ish. That way you will be earning money (getting the experiance which is the best thing anyone can ask for) and also be learning something in a specific field you want. I personally went to college for a year, got my deploma and walked streight into my web design course :). Schools shit and the difference between school and college is huge. The second you leave school.... things are down to you :good:

    theres this amazing thing called a library...... Or while your still at school talk to your form tutor about getting yourself an interview with your careers advisor. Its a free service so if i was you i would take it :). He can set you off in the right direction streight away.

    I personally hated A-Levels and in the end failed them all.... thats why its best to start early :) (altho A-Levels was the biggest piss about of my life :D)

    give a levels a go its only gonna take a year anyway (maybe not even that)

    so you at least have an idea whats going on and yeah follow up your goals find out what u need to know

    look at what you want and ask yourself do you know everything about it

    if not, find out

    Stick at education as long as you can, for one its the most fun you'll ever have in your life ( you don't think it now but it is) plus. once you stop this education stuff, you'll be a stuck in a dead end nobodys job in somewhere like a supermarket, where a trained monkey could do the job for peanuts. If you want to be a somebody, or a big earner, i suggest you stick at education, do the best you can, get a-levels and diploma and aim HIGH. if you fail, at least you tried.

    u have to be 18 to be a fireman if u dont know what u want to do just stay in school till u work it out.

    tis what i did and it was the best decision of my life. i didnt even get any a levels but i worked out exactly what i wanted to do with my life.

    go to your local careers office they might be able to help u out (they didnt me) if they dont go to your army careers office they rule there :)

    if u really do want to be a fireman search the net for info on it then go to your local firestation and talk to the officer in charge there. then go get yourself a job for 2 years till u turn 18 and on your 18th birthday go sign up :)

    how can u say education is the most fun you will have in your life? it might of been for you but dont generalise like that it really gets ppl down

    the first 16 years of my life were fucking shit and from there its just got better and better.

    ppl allways say school is the best time of your life and them ppl are the ones who have no ambition and are stuck in a job they hate, they wake up everyday wishing it was the weekend so they didnt have to go to a job they hate.

    Generalising man lol--->ppl allways say school is the best time of your life and them ppl are the ones who have no ambition and are stuck in a job they hate, they wake up everyday wishing it was the weekend so they didnt have to go to a job they hate.
    Ok for some its not a good time, but your unlikely to find a job where you can meet so many ppl the same age as you, girls, and have loads of fun and freedom while your at it. (college, uni only on this one). Yeah maybe some people who are stuck in dead end jobs do say school was the best time of your life, but like myself, i'm in college now, and i havn't got as far as the work world yet to look back and say my opinion. But i know i have enjoyed school, and i know how much work experience sucked balls. All i'm sayin is, once you leave education, if youve fucked it up, then your gonna be stuck in a dead end job for the next 40-50 odd years of your life. ATLEAST try at further education, like college, you ow it to yourself really.

    You can try monster.com or careerbuilder.com if you live in the US, don't know about international.

    All about experience, and its hard when someone doesn't have any.

    omfg, gay lap dancers where the shit at...

    go speak to ur careers advisor at school, and also if you wanna b a fireman, go and shadow a fireman inbuilding, although u will need health and safety cert for that i believe, and its 18 and a half not 18 to join Police/fire briggade as they dont want weedy fags who not started pubity applying for the jobs...
