I am currently going to graduate in a month, but I am not confident with myself in this field. My current gpa is really low due to the past mistakes that I have learned now. I am going into mechanical design technology. I love this field but I just feel like I am needed somewhere else. I'm not confident that if I can bring my education with me when I get out of school. I could go back to school and bring up my gpa but I feel that if I do that I may as well get into a different field. Any kind of feedback is welcomed.

I'm guessing you aren't footing the bill for your education then based on how cavalier you are in going back to school.

I am paying for my education. I go to a technical college.

So... the idea of paying off all the extra new money isn't a concern? I'm saying that not to be a smartass but to help you get your focus back... its going to take a lot of years to pay off what you borrowed already... going back and running up those bills significantly higher is going to make those payments that much bigger every month.

Speaking as someone who has been there (college and the bills after)....its something you need to pay serious attention to. The time for second thoughts was before your first year was out.....not a month from graduation.

Sure the GPA is going to restrict you from the best recruiters....but do you think you are going to be able to pay nearly double what you will have to pay now if you go back? I think you might be overestimating what your take home pay is going to be the first years after college like a lot of other people incollege.

You have a point. I guess I'm just scared of what's going to happen in the future.

Trust me... everyone is... and if they say they aren't... they are either naïve and going to be in for a rude awakening... or are lying about it. Its a HUGE change in your life....the biggest one yet.
