To explain Real College Plan, let’s run through a typical young adult conversation.
After high school graduation, Paul, Demarcus and Jalana are planning to work now and may attend college later while Breanna, Chris and Tasha are planning to go to college right away. These six recent high school graduate friends are getting together for the first time since graduation night which was about two weeks ago.
Here’s a conversation that they had:
Jalana: Hey, I am so glad to see you all.
Demarcus: Yeah, me too.
Chris: What have you all been up to since grad night?
Tasha: I have been planning my outfits and my dorm room decorations so that I can be ready to head off to college in the Fall.
Paul: Tasha, you have been planning a lot of things so what are you going to study off in college?
Tasha: Well, you know that I want to make a lot of money and that I want to help people feel better. Guess that means that I plan to declare as a Pre-Med major.
Breanna: Tasha, you know that you are not willing to go to college for 8 years to become a doctor.
Tasha: Yeah, you’re right. So I guess I will never be able to work in the healthcare field.
Breanna: Don’t give up so easily. I found this company on Facebook and Twitter called Overton Leadership Associates. They have something called Real College Plan Career Field Interest Survey. It’s not a test so I decided to take the survey. It’s done over the phone and takes just 40 minutes. You get the results on the next business day. My results indicated that I’m a BOSS, but you, as my friends, already know that.
Chris: Yeah, I went to realcollegeplan.com and took the survey as well. I am a TECHIE as I am sure that you all are not surprised since I love computers.
Demarcus: Although I am heading to work now instead of college, I still went to overtonleaders.com but I didn’t take the survey.
Jalana: Why not?
Demarcus: While Overton Leadership Associates charges a small fee to take the Career Field Interest Survey, they allow you to get a Free Download called, Ways to Make Money—Without Going to College. That one sheet of paper lists more than 50 viable job titles that I will consider. Turns out that the website is not just for young adults who are heading to college right away, but for young adults who are heading straight into the work world as well.
Jalana: Breanna, you should take the Real College Plan Career Field Interest Survey. You may discover that you are a LIFESAVER like me.
Breanna: LIFESAVER, what’s that?
Jalana: A LIFESAVER is someone who wants a career in the healthcare field. The best thing about the survey is that it identifies the day-to-day work tasks, workplace settings and career fields that interest you the most, but it does not pigeonhole you into a specific college major. In other words, you will discover that a physician isn’t the only healthcare professional who makes a lot of money and helps people feel better.
Paul: That’s right. We don’t need to be in a hurry to declare. As young adults we still need to take some college courses before zeroing in on a specific major. There’s plenty of time for declaring a major after we determine: 1) what our talents are, 2) the amount of study hours required to be A students in a particular major and 3) whether or not graduate school will be required in order to reach our career goals.
Breanna: Thanks buddies, for the great advice! I am going to text 205-667-3592 and schedule my Real College Plan Career Field Interest Survey today.
