So its that time of the year where all those seniors get those letters of acceptance or are less fortunate and get deferred or denied. My questions are, where are you commiting to and what major are you looking at?

Me personally: Im going to Colorado Northwestern Community College (moving from PA). For their very good associates program in aviation technology(Professional pilot). I will then transfer to a 4 year somewhere for business or a type of computer programming degree, ultimately to become a pilot for a major airline in that time.

Perhaps, but it's also apparent that they don't teach capitalization where you're from.

I think you should replace the comma with a period and remove the conjunction. It may sound correct as it is, but we do not always use formal grammar when we speak.

I take that back. I was being trying to be a smart ass, but nothing was really wrong with what you said.

Good luck with that. VERY competitive.
Although as the Baby Boomers retire openings will increase.

Good program there. Bunch of my EMT friends either went there for that or Fire Academy.

Also very competitive field to get into. Are you planning to gurney jockey it and go to medic school or try for the fire test lottery?

Flying in the military is also basically a prerequisite to flying for an airline. Might want to go that route its sort of the only way from what I have heard.

Nah, since the industry contains many senior pilots that will be retiring in a matter of 10 years it will be a very similar time in the industry to the deregulation that occured. I looked at going through the air force but it just sets you back so far. One of my dads best friends is a year or two older than him and he is still only a first officer on the 75/76, while as my dad is a captain.

Seniors in High school typically are 18 by graduation. College can be a number of years depending on what someone is getting into

How is that euphemism related to sheep like behavior(brain washed)? Excuse my rhetoric, but it just empathy through euphemism are not to be confused with authority figures containing you.
