The Price Of Life
For this project we have designed a path that we could possibly take after high school. We've researched all of the costs we would have to pay if we were living independently while going to college. We first started with a packet where we wrote down just the basics of our future path like our estimates for bills. Then we created spreadsheets that included live cells, if you change one cell it will automatically change all of the connected cells. The most important piece of our project was the write up, it had to include all of our findings and specific costs and details about our future. Our last step was to present our project, get feedback, edit our work and then write a final reflection. After we finished we took all of our pieces and turned it into a portfolio for our final product.

Write Up |
After graduating high school I intend on attending a four year university and law school. I have chosen to base this project off of me going to Bristol University and living in Bristol, England, Uk. My parents and I have discussed this multiple times and are willing to help me out financially if I am unable to support myself. My research was all done assuming that I would be living independently in order to get the most out of this project.
Ever since 8th grade I’ve been debating on what I want my future career to be. I’ve considered the idea of becoming a lawyer, therapist or nurse/doctor. In 8th grade I did this project called Road Trip Nation where we also planned out our future paths in life, we then had to chose a career and interview someone with that same career. I chose a Criminal Justice lawyer, he described his daily life and the pros and cons of becoming a lawyer. Click Here To Read My Full Write Up |
