RE: Life Goals
I totally agree with those things.
Design cars - again coming under the automotive engineering lol
A smog tester? That seems like a whole lotta work for very little gain. Not something i want to be doing in 10 years.
Photographer? Thats very hit and miss...
I make a good leader, im hard working, motivated, eager to learn, pretty computer literate, pretty car literate.
I would love to test cars

Than i would look towards a mechanical engineering degree electrical engineering automotive engineering all degrees that will help i am half way done with an EE (electrical engineering degree) but when i get out i plan on like att or raytheon unless i decide to do UTI sometime but thats really good to be that motivated to do it my cousin just got done with a ME after 5 years and he said it was hard but worth it. The best thing to do is look at what schools offer the program and what you can afford and remember a degree from eastern new mexico is the same degree from Cal state its your grades through out the program that make the big differencs

sebba you seem like a well rounded kid, and your willing to learn and can take advice. If your looking to open a shop, i could tell you, being as though i've owned one for 13 years now, it's fun. AT TIMES. The way i started was just like you, loved cars and wanted to work on them, but i knew just high performance wasn't going to make me rich. (not that i am now but still). So i studying for 1 and half and got my master technician license. I'll tell you it's something you have to love, becuase you have to deal with it on a daily basis. You have to be enthused about installing a full turbo upgrade, as much as doing brakes on a crappy jetta. The money is well, if you do your finances right.
You could also, with the master tech license run a service drive and make 90k + a year.
You could also take courses to teach others how to drive, and become a dial in driver at a race track. Where people pay you to teach them how to drive. And pay you to drive their cars.
You seem like a hands on type of kid, so choose something that you truely would love. I can only give you a glimpse of what i do, hopefully you learn from it and derive your own path.

well i require brakes and coolant system ASE certifications for all my employees, and willingness to learn. These degree's are very easy and wont take more then 2 months to get. I pay them well, more then at the standard dealership. If ever you leave England and are in the Miami area, i'll for sure give you a hand.
