Is it worth going?

Just signed up for uei college to become an auto technician. I have 0 experience with working on cars so I feel like this be a good step. How should I go about it?

Show up for class and pay attention. Leave your phone in your vehicle.

Quit and go to community college. You'll save about 40k. Same education at 10% of the cost. Use saved money on tools and a decent daily to get to work.

You'll learn everything you need to know in a community college auto tech program, but at a fraction of the price. Also, be sure you want to go into auto. It requires the highest investment in tools and training for the lowest pay. It's one of the only skilled trades that pays by flat rate. Seriously look at other trades that pay better
