I am very young and am about to graduate highschool . I have alot of experience for my age. I am in an automotive program and have been for 3 years at my school. My question is what do i do after this? Is there any classes/courses you wish you would have taken? Is the long certificate worth it? or is a short just as good in the long run? I dont believe i want to go to a technical school.

as a rookie like yourself school is nothing compared to what's out there and how the industry works, flat rate sucks and if you started liking cars like i did get overworked, treated like sh**t, most places will refuse to do apprenticing due to the fact that flat rate is cut throat and they dont have the time to show you anything if even a little at the most.
