RE: [newtech-1] Tech Schools?

Stuart, you're really too harsh.

I have to explain myself again.

Okay. As I said, I would prefer to finish my education here, and move out of state. Because to move out, without education, means it'll be 10000x harder. But at the same time, I don't WANT to stay in NY, because it's expensive (by expensive, I am talking about COST OF LIVING)

Next. I don't know how i'd fund my education if I didn't get scholarships and good grades. Makes sense now? If I got not-so-good grades to get NO scholarships, it would mean I'd have to work, and I don't know if that would pay it off.

Then, what I said about it being really good and not being so good, is me thinking out loud of what others said about big popular colleges and where they'd take you rather than more practical use colleges, like that business one.

Also, Stuart, I am not to criticize what adults say or do, but I will say one thing. What do you get out of criticizing how I think and write? I'm a confused and lost teenager (great excuse isn't it? at least it's true) who seeks some help because I don't know what I want to do in the future. Then I get a foot up my ass because I said two different, seemingly contradictory things. Sure, to you. But to me, it makes perfect sense what I said.

There are a lot of reasons why I want to move out, and why I want to stay. And my priority is to be SET for a good job, when I leave.

I hope you understand.

my error - here's the original stay-vs.-go assertion:
 
That's simple why I would prefer to go to NYIT instead. It's closer.
Yup, that's it.
 
vs. the later
 
I really don't want to stay in NY (which is why I would like to go transfer to some college outside of the state, NY is just too expensive), but if I have to I will.
 
which was one of his arguments for NOT going to MIT
 
Also, I don't know how I will fund my education if I'm not working part time, or full.
 
as opposed to
 
I don't think finances are a problem if you're doing good in school. It'll be paid for by scholarships and what not. Kind of like now, I'm coasting on your tax money hahaha.
 
and this
...the research that MIT has that gains it fame and crushes other colleges.
 
as opposed to
 
Anyways, MIT has the name it has, because some rich people invested into it from the start right?
 
and the completely simply-cannot-be-true-that-he-didn't know-about-MIT
 
So MIT isn't just famous, but it's actually "REALLY GOOD" too?
 
I'm just saying...Richard is clearly playing us.
 
OK, that's it for me on this thread. Have fun, all.
