What To Do After High School Most high school seniors believe they have to go straight to college right after high school. College degrees are not needed in some career fields, so why even get a degree that you don’t need? I believe in certain circumstances, going to college is a waste of time. Many work forces are looking for people with experience, and students just coming out of college don’t have that experience that supervisors are looking for. Students are looking for jobs or careers which they will enjoy, and they do not want to have to go pay tons of money on an education that they might not even need. Pursuing a degree at a university is very expensive, and yes, you might get paid better, but you will still be in the same job.
