Item description from seller

Paperback. The decision after high school is the biggest one most familiesmake together. The advice is everywhere. The facts are not.Follow your passion. Get the degree. The trades are what you do ifcollege doesn't work out. Your son or daughter hears all of it, usuallyfrom people who mean well.Career TRUTHS: After High School is an honest, research-backed guide to the years between eighthgrade and the first real decision. It takes college seriously, because abachelor's degree still pays on average. It takes the trades just asseriously, because for some students that is the better answer. It doesnot tell you which one is yours. It gives you what you need to work thatout together.What's inside: The Passion Trap. Why "follow your passion" is a difficultplace to start, and what Stanford's research on how interests really formfound instead.The College Default. College still pays on average. But morethan a quarter of bachelor's programs leave graduates no better off, andthat average hides an enormous range.The Four-Year Track. What colleges really weigh, drawn from asurvey of 185 admissions offices. The return of the SAT and ACT. Why thepublished cost is not what families pay.The Trade Track. What the work really pays, according to theBureau of Labor Statistics. The four ways in, and six questions to ask anyprogram before you pay it a dollar.A chapter for parents. There are two ways to get this wrong, and most of us only worry about one of them.A guest chapter from Stephen J. Henning, Managing Partner ofWood Smith Henning & Berman LLP, on how a college essay is written yearsbefore anyone sits down to type it.Year-by-year checklists from eighth grade through senior year, plus a parent's progress checklist that marks who owns what. The numbers stay current. QR codes throughout link to a freecompanion site where the wage tables, testing policies and cost figuresare updated as new federal data is released. A printed table goes stale.This one does not.Straight talk, real exercises, no hype. Written by James E.Willett, who spent more than three decades hiring, mentoring and promotingpeople, and who raised two sons through this same decision.For students in grades 8 through 12, for the parents walking besidethem, and for the counselors who have this conversation all year. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
