personally i think it would look better in a job interview that you have something comepared to it showing you dropped out.
National Diploma in Applied Science (forensic science).
You are right I suppose; but I don't know.
It would look better yes; I agree, but I have no previous job experience and I think I should try and get some.
In reply to a comment I haven't quoted:
I won't become a waste ring, or whatever the word was you used. I will actually look for a job. I live two seconds from town so I can have a proper look.
Luke lives on the outskirts of town where it'll take about 25 minutes to walk, possibly longer.
That's why he struggles; he's carless and can't just bob into town. Then again, having no job generally means you have plenty of spare time ( in most cases).
There is a shortage of jobs in the town where I live but now I am getting to the point where I will really try to find a job. (I didn't really try before, because I'm a student and it's pretty easy to narrow down what places take on students; so only looked at these places).
So yeah...  Lost in what to do still Don't hate on me please, I am actually going to try

If you leave college, just get a job. Tell look to stop being a pusy making excuses. When i was 16 I was walking half hour to work. I now drive Hour/Hour and a Half.
And the term i used (but spelt incorectly) was waster in society.
Not "hating on you" but you are contradicting the argument you had with us all just last week !

Gary - You need to decide what you want to do in life. Can you see a career in forensic science?
Don't just drop out and become a statistic, yes it might be easier to look for a job when you've got nothing else to do but if you quit college with nothing to go into I can gaurantee you'll fall in to a rut.
Don't think qualifications are the be all and end all though, I dropped out of college after 5 months and I think I'm doing alright for myself
WAGER. TV was sold out last night

Luke can take care of himself..  .
And Neo seriously well done on you walking half hour to work at 16 That's good!
And I won't be a waster I'll try.
And I only contradicted it in the term that I said there's no jobs. I probably said that inaccurately, but Burnley is pretty uptight for jobs right now . Might try to get a job where my dad used to work  .

I don't have a copy, the photo was taken stood in the middle of tescos magazines aisles. The only reason I looked in it was to see if you were in there
I'll have another look when I'm in tesco again monday and will send it to you for five of your english pounds

Conway I can see it. But I would prefer to get experience; rather than just get it on paper
And I suppose you are right about not being a statistic.

If it's the career you want then IMO you need to complete your course. It's not the type of job you can just get experience in you need qualifications.
Personally I think far too many people do bullshit courses at college and uni that have no relevance to anything in the real career world. This isn't one of those courses though

Might just suck it up and see where it takes me.
I'll sit down and think about it tonight when I get home.

If you can see i carear in then dont drop it just to get a job as you wont get a job in that field without the qualifications behind you. so you would just end up with the average shop job which gives you no experience to do with the course your doing.
just stick it out
