<p>hey guys,
im in 9th grade currently, sceduling for 10th, and i wanted to see if i could find some info on salaries of major fields like dentistry, accounting, business management, and computer software and hardware. my dad is really hoping for me to go into medical, but he doesnt care as ong as i make lots of money. from what i know, these are the best money-making fields. i really have my eyes set on dentistry and computer software and hardware. i really do not want to go into accounting because i took the class this year and it borel the hell outa me. please let me know if there is a site that has updated info on salaries (other than salaries.com), or just post the salaries out of college, and experienced. thanks guys.</p>

<p>I can change all of this if I decide I want to go in to computers and I don’t need to go heavy on Bio and Chem.</p>
<p>You’re in 9th grade- you should focus on your 10th grade classes. Don’t stress out over planning out any further than that, except in those cases where your school may have important prerequisites for special programs or classes you really want to take. Now, your classes look fine, go frolic.</p>
<p>why are you worrying about college now? I didn’t start considering schools until the second half of junior year. you’ve still got plenty of time. just relax, concentrate on extracurriculars, and keep up your grades.</p>
<p>Right now, I have absolutly no ec’s. I know thats bad, but I can’t play any sports so that cuts out a lot. Can you guys give me ideas of what I can do? Does it have to be for the school? for example, if I volunteer at the library or a temple or hospital or something, will that count? I havn’t “planned” my high scchool carreer, I just like to keep that stuf in my mind, so that I know what classes I’m working towards. For ecample, I dont want to take Chem one year thinking I’m going to take AP Chem the next and then I decide that I’d rather go into a physics field. So as i go through high school, I am still free to change anything i want, but this just helps me work towards majoring or minoring in medical and/or computers.</p>
<p>Your plan is fine, don’t worry about the details at this point. What worries me is that you are trying to make a plan based on what someone else wants, and on making money. Money doesn’t make you happy. Having a fulfilling life does.</p>
<p>Find what you love to do, and would do even if you didn’t get paid. If it’s computers, volunteering at the library can be a good outlet.</p>
