It depends on what you do best, why? because even if you land the best employer with high salary if your not happy with what you do its worthless you will soon give up and try to find what makes you happy, I think its a waste of time and effort.

Hello there.thank you for your response.i really appreciate it.i guess you are right.no matter how much high pay i receive if i dont love what i am doing,i will just get tired of doing it. But at this time,i think i will have to put aside my interest because for now,i must think of a career that will assure me of a brighter future someday. what course do you propose?

I think this all depends on where your employment interest is. I personally would recommend an IT course! Start from a basic course and then work your way up to more advanced IT courses. There are plenty of IT jobs online that are unfilled. However, and this this important, you shouldn't just go for something like this if you have no interest in this subject as you will be unhappy and discontent in your job should you secure one.
I think you should analyse what your skills are and also what you enjoy doing and then take it from there. Good luck. Andrew

Thank you so much andrew. I really appreciate your response. I will think about that. I am into computers and i think i will take a computer course because i believe there are online opportunities that i could grab if i have the basics in IT. Thank you again for leaving a valuable advice.

im going to be a college freshman soon, and after hearing bad news about lack of jobs here in our country, i decided to take a crash course of Medical Transcription, it's just 6 months. and i can also work online, i find it very flexible. and as early as now im really hoping that this decision of mine is right. :)

There is no such thing as a best college course. What matters most is that you love what you are doing. I prefer you took a course wherein it is your Passion. As what Oprah Winfrey says "Let your Passion drive your Profession". So that you won't feel your work as a burden but as a way of enjoying.
