It is the time when I have to choose my classes for my Junior year, so everyone is figuring out what credits they need and what classes will “look good” on a college application. I for one have no idea what I want to do after high school. I am in all honors classes and absolutely love learning, but hate high school. In my free time I learn more about computer science through taking college classes online (link below) and learn about other topics too. I have begun this series of classes in my free time (linked below) in which taking all of them will give you the equivalent of a 4 year degree in knowledge. I know I’m smart, but I underachieve in school because of how much I dislike it. I’ve been thinking about going to college, but at the same time I don’t want the six figure debt and another high school experience. Just taking that list of classes (linked below) for free and posting my work as proof seems to make sense as well, but I’m not really sure. I want to be a software developer working with machine learning algorithms and start a company one day. Could anyone provide any suggestions? Thank you in advance!
