    To be honest with you, the longer of a break you take between high school and college the harder it is to actually make yourself go back to college. I had several years between school and college. It wasn't easy going back into a classroom environment after that long of a break, lol. The most difficult part was the fact that I was so much older than most of the other students. There really was a disconnect between me and them. They wanted to play and I needed to work and study. :biggrin_25523:

    Best thing to do would be to go straight into college, imo. Get your degree and then come trucking. That way you have more options if/when you decide to leave trucking or want to work in the administration of a trucking company.

    Having options is soooo important.

    Best of luck to ya. :)
