    Well after High School I plan on attending college and majoring in business management. Not sure what school it will be yet but I've been thinking about maybe going to USC, UCLA, or maybe OSU. From there I'll probably end up in something like marketing. That's about all I have now.

    I'm thinking about going to Central Michigan for Business or something around those lines. I don't know about a profession.

    College at UConn or Florida. For UConn my mom went there and I have family. For Florida I would get an in state discount because my parents have a future retirement home down there. Both are good schools academicallynot to mention good sports.

    Im thinking of going to UT(u of tennessee), but probably to U of Memphis and become a History teacher or something. I would like to become a journalist for sports or something, but it'll be hard to find that job.

    Definitely college, probably business, and definitely somewhere up in New England.

    I'll be going to ASU unless something goes wrong. I don't know what kind of job I want but it has to be something relating to sports for me. I like business so maybe something there. Journalism sounds good but I heard too many bad things about it to really choose that. I'll have to figure that part out later.

    Go to college on a full scholarship, play for 2 or 3 years, then enter the NBA draft.

You have to be pretty tall, extremely athletic, and be determined. I highly doubt you will make it to the pros, no offense.

Who knows he could be really good, but there is a really small chance that he will make college let alone the pros.

    Definetly go to college. No way I wouldn't and I see no reason why I wouldn't. Right now I'm pretty sure I want to attend San Diego State, Arizona, or Cal Poly SLO. I want to go into computer science and become a web designer or graphics designer for my occupation.

    College. My life long dream is being a NBA player or at least play somewhere professionly. But I know it's hard to accomplish that. So im thinking somwhere around Chemical Engineering. They make sh*t loads of money.

    I'm going to Dalhousie University right here where I live. My mom teaches there, so I get a discount, and it is near home, and imo the best univ. where I live. I definaely dont want to leave home right after high school, so that will be a good place to start off from.To be honest, I have no clue what I want to do for an occupation.

I know a lot of my friends were majoring in that (and they are really smart, study hard, etc.) and they ended up switching majors because it was just too strenuous. But yeah, if you can handle it, they make a good sum of money.

I know I'm just 14 in all but I would strongly suggest doing what you will enjoy doing for a good amount of your life instead of what will make you a huge amount money. I mean it will suck having to get up everyday for 30+ years to go do a job that you don't even enjoy doing.

Obviously you all have a long way to go before you graduate from college, etc., but keep that in mind. You'll eventually figure out what it is that interests you, even if you have to switch majors a few times once you enter college.
