So I don't want to go uni, could I do an internship or something?
I live in England if this helps
so i’m proceeding into my second year of college and i may have to take a third, but i don’t wish to go university.
i would like to have a career path in web designing and coding so is it possible if i could take an internship or a course (when i’ve finished college)?
the courses i took during first year of college is:
GCSE Maths
BTEC National Award in ICT
A level in cultural studies (extended project i.e volunteering) and
A level in Communications and Culture (another sector regarding English)
and my choices for 2nd year are BTEC National Certificate in ICT (2nd), BTEC National Award in Business or A level in business, may have to re-take my gcse maths because i failed in the modular course (module 5 i think, which is the hardest of all buggers!) and another A level of some sort…
so im basically stuck, i do not wish to go university, and i got told, why are you still in college if you dont want to go university? my answer was simple, its better than having gcse’s. But yeah any ideas?
and the reason i dont wish to go university is because i want to travel the world and explore cultures!
any suggestions? thanks 
Wow within 1 minute I get 3 helpless answers! Thanks, appreciated.
Cheers gus for that answer but I don’t think military would suit me, I mean yeah had a dream of being in military forces when I was young but now it’s like you get sent to another country and a high possibility of getting killed and plus you don’t get paid that much… My aim in life is just too earn money, help out my family and travel the world… I’m not big headed or anything sorry if I gave that insight!
And dragonfly thanks for that answer! Really helped, I’ve Been looking online for internships and could hardly find anything within my area… Kinda sucks lol but will ask my teacher! Thanks
How To Find My Career Path?
I’m seventeen years of age and I still haven’t chosen the career path in which I want to follow. I’m very interested in the world of business and I think that area is something I was born to do. For example, when I was really little, about 9 or 10, I used to buy multipacks of products from supermarkets and then sell them to my brother and sister to make a profit. So it kind of comes naturally to me. I guess I could be an entrepreneur. However, I lack self-confidence and I’m pretty shy around people. I also enjoy graphic and web design. I’m also keen on interior design and architecture. There’s so many options that I would enjoy but at such a young age, I don’t know how to go about following my dream. I do want to start my own business at one stage of my life but I doubt I’ll be able to do that at 18. Any ideas on how I could figure out the right career path? Thank you very much.
