I'm only a high school graduate and a college dropout. I didn't last too long doing online college courses because the stuff I was doing didn't feel like the path I wanted to take. In terms of programming, I'm self-taught.

I didn’t graduate High school as I got expelled, but I did get my GED. I didn’t go to college. I learned how to do SEO on my own. I don’t know how to program anymore. I used to know how to code basic php pages, but that was when I was 14-15. I forgot how to.

I have a Bsc in computer Science. I've been thinking about going for a second degree but the money to push for it isn't something I can spare now.

I have a B.Tech in Electrical Engineering. Since it had very core subjects, I was able to crack jobs coming from a similar domain (RF - Radio Frequency). Today, I am a proud aerospace electronics engineer.

Fun Fact: Every aeroplane in the world has electronic parts manufactured by the company I work in.

I graduated high school and did go to college for a few years afterwards, but dropped out. I didn't even really know what I wanted to go to school for, I put down graphic design but I'm not an artist and I'm not sure why I put that down lol. I program sometimes, and I'm all self taught. I can't really code things from scratch, I'm better at modifying existing code.

Wow, that sounds so cool. Are you guys also into manufacturing the parts of fighter jets too or it's just strictly for commercial aeroplanes?

I hold a degree in theatre arts. I have had the desire to become a radio presenter for a very long period of time and even when it didn't work out when I started, I am glad that I am getting to the stage where I can achieve my dreams of becoming one because I have an interview coming soon with one radio station.

Which aspect of Theatre Arts did you specialize in? Is it Mass Communication? I knew someone who studied the same thing, he's working as a producer in a radio station.

I completed school and took all of my end-of-school exams which are GCSE exams and I went to college for a year and took level 2 childcare and education.

Unfortunately, due to how life went and how my life if, working in childcare is not something I would be able to manage now which is why I chose another career path.
