Default Classes You Wish You Took

What classes do you wish you had taken in high school? For me, I wish I had taken wood shop and electrical engineering. It also would have been nice if I had taken more French classes.

I wish I would have tried to keep working on math. I got as far as Algebra, and wasn't doing very well, so my Senior year, since I had to have one more credit of math, took an easy math class. It was called Math Topics, and I will admit, sometimes it was hard, but I got an A. I feel like I kinda cheated myself. Math is something I am terrible at and I wish I would have helped myself a bit. O well

There was a psychology class offered in high school that I wasn't interested in. I knew a lot of people who took it, but I didn't. Now I have an interest in psychology, and I find myself wishing that I'd taken it.

I took Spanish for 3 years, Accounting for 2 and Psychology for 1 year. I wish I would have continued and really kept my focus. I forgot all the Spanish I learned when I left HS, and I got bored with accounting the 2nd year because I didn't like the teacher I had and we didn't work enough.. we spent too much time talking and joking around. It wasn't very productive. Psychology was nice, but I took it senior year, so I didn't have a chance to get more into it. I don't plan on going to college

Wow that's pretty cool you guys can choose any class you want during HS? For four years of my stay at HS the method of learning there is just like elementary students where in you can only take classes the school prepared for everyone else. I really wished I could take some laderized courses at least I can learn different things.

What kind of school did you go to? I went to a public school. There was a lot of joking around and lots of blow off classes, but there were still lots of people who were serious about learning.

If I had room on my schedule for woodshop, I would have taken it.

I also went to public school in Washington State (USA). Most the schools I went to were in Washington, then I moved to Oregon, and Colorado.

In high school, our subjects were dictated so there was no option for me. But for college, I wish I took French or Korean class as my foreign language class rather than Spanish.

I wonder if I'll ever go to college. I kinda doubt it. I would rather save my money

I think that the important thing is that we find work that we want to do. Most of us go to college so we can get a good job, but if you find that job before you go to college, that's great. I would have loved to taken more art history classes in college.
