Well if you were from the US I would just recommend community college and then transfer to a university from there. But I have no idea how it works in your country. There may be something similar in your country, a junior or community college that can be used to get a foot in the door. I don't know but look into it.

going to college give you a huge boost up. (like getting a red mushroom on mario. >_<). but you DON'T have to have a college degree to "get through the game" its just a little harder. if you're good at what you do and you know what you're doing you can be just as sucessful as the person with a masters.

you just have to work a bit harder. ask God where your path is and open your heart so you can see what hes showing you.

Here's the thing, i don't want to be an ass and bash other people's thoughts on this topic but my story is i was kicked out of high school when i was a senior, never went to any college or trade school and i own my own business. I do web design and i make a good living off of it. There are plenty of people just like me who society deemed failures and they rose up. Look at Christopher Paolini, dude dropped out of high school at age 14 and now he is a best selling author.
