What Career Path is Best?
Posted on Thursday, 3rd December, 2009
My now 9th grader is working on figuring out what he wants to do when he “grows up.” Maybe I’ll even figure that out for myself one day…lol. Is there some quick tool that you know of to help narrow down the ginormous jobs list out there, and then correlate it to colleges that can help on that specific path? For example, my son is very talented in art, but thinks he wants to go into engineering, possibly to design cars. I know it’s lofty, and don’t want to discourage him, but maybe there’s some really specialized area in the auto design process that he can get super-proficient at, and get to do what he likes? Am I being clear? Thanks, Jennifer

Should a Homeschooler take the GED?
Posted on Monday, 30th November, 2009
Homeschooling parents often ask me about the General Equivalency Diploma, should they or should they not have their student take the GED? This can be a touchy subject, but the answer is pretty straight forward. Colleges and universities have a general bias towards those students with a GED certificate instead of a high school diploma. It really doesn’t matter the reason the student received a GED, whether homeschooled or not.
