Need advice-feel zoned out all the time and worried about failing

Will a 2-year degree limit me in the culinary arts field?

I've decided to major in culinary arts at a 2 year school. I know trade-like programs are often 2 years long and fare well, but culinary arts seems to go both ways, 2 years or 4. Here in Maine, there simply aren't any 4 year culinary arts programs, although I've considered transferring to a...

Feeling indecisive-how'd you decide on your major?

I'm basically torn between graphic design, culinary arts and nutrition. My college doesn't offer minors. Since I took graphic design at vocational school and liked it pretty well, I'm thinking about continuing and learning more. But realistically, I don't do as much drawing as I used to,...

How do you focus better in school with your mind racing?

I usually test well, but I often times can't concentrate, and I don't want that to hurt me when I start college. It's not always things around me, but just my thoughts distracting me. If I'm feeling really inspired it can help me work faster. But I'm not quite sure what to do in the heat of...

In your opinion, is college "too" expensive?

In your own words, do you think colleges ask too much money for an education?
Remember, there isn't a "right" or "wrong" answer, this is based off of opinion.

What is a job you'd never want to have EVER?

I want to know what is the exact OPPOSITE of what people think they want. What they wouldn't want to do in a million years- and see if, later in life, these ideals are still present. #future-careers
