Victoria’s Answer

Hi Kate,


This is such a great question. One possible way to answer this is to think about how these courses will prepare you for college or work life in the future. Dual enrollment can help you save money by taking college prerequisites in high school so when you get to college you can graduate college more quickly, save money on tuition, and/or start your career journey faster. Can you tell me a little more about what you plan to do after high school? Answering the next step questions may help you focus your decision. It's okay if you don't know the answer, one area that is super in demand is STEM. 70% of careers by 2020 will require a knowledge of Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM).

Victoria recommends the following next steps:

Can you tell me a little more about what you plan to do after high school? What subjects do you like and what you you think are your talents?
Can you tell me more about careers that interest you and what classes are available for you to take that match your interest.
Work with a counselor at your high school or your local college or community college to explore possible careers. See if you can attend some of the classes as a visitor to get an idea of what to expect. Talk to current seniors whose opinion you value.
