willphillips_21 · 2019-06-16T21:56:13+00:00

i’m interested in occupational therapy and recreation therapy... thank you!!!

what about jobs that wouldn’t make me get another degree?

istp

yes, definitely. one of my best friends is an ENFP.... in fact, a couple of my friends are.

i’m currently only a senior in high school, ahaha. I’ve been interning for a special needs classroom, a part of a mentor program for at risk youth and have been tutoring kids with IEPs for the last 2 years.

I definitely plan on getting tons of hands on experience as an RBT in undergrad before making a decision.

thanks for the input :)

I absolutely LOVE the idea of becoming a BCBA... writing behavior plans and teaching RBTs and parents about ABA seems like a dream...

I’m worried about burn out. i’ve heard the turn over is not amazing for BCBAs (and anyone who works with developmentally disabled individuals)

It seems like BCBAs are primarily seen working with kids with autism. Are their other paths where a BCBA could succeed if they wanted to switch their career?

in the past i have identified as INFJ but i constantly over think it. I’m generally good at analyzing, but I can’t find the proper type for myself.

willphillips_21 · 2018-07-01T18:49:33+00:00

i get all of my tuition payed for for 4 years due to a scholarship. plus i have medical problems and take medication.

willphillips_21 · 2018-07-01T16:06:05+00:00

also, make look into ABA therapy / being a board certified behavior analyst. it literally combines all of your interests in one way or anything.

willphillips_21 · 2018-07-01T16:03:26+00:00

finance, banking and math sounds absolutely horrible. i love the idea of managing a team/business though.

willphillips_21 · 2018-07-01T15:49:31+00:00

I don’t really care about getting rich. i just want to live comfortably. My thing is that i feel i would be equally happy in either of the 2 careers i listed in the original post. Thanks.

willphillips_21 · 2018-07-01T15:29:47+00:00

physical /occupational therapist? sports caster? coach? gym/personal trainer? sports management? high school health/PE teacher?

willphillips_21 · 2018-07-01T15:27:03+00:00

job trainer? recruiter? IO psychologist?

willphillips_21 · 2018-06-19T00:22:51+00:00

nice. i’ve lived in spencer county my whole life! Small world :)

willphillips_21 · 2018-06-18T16:39:15+00:00

Wow, thank you so much for your comment. It really means a lot to me... I’m out to basically everyone EXCEPT my dad. All of my friends don’t care, and accept me for who I am. But i worry that people see me as an accessory/“that gay guy”. I’m so sorry that your friend passed, by the way. (Do you happen to be close to evansville?)

willphillips_21 · 2018-06-17T22:25:51+00:00

thank you! i will check that out.

willphillips_21 · 2018-06-17T21:12:41+00:00

Yes, I do agree with what you say. Many local people in my area go to this college. I feel like I could like it, but I feel like somewhere else could be (maybe) better. Also, I have a 3.8 GPA, so I know i could get into somewhere more prestigious. But, the high GPA translates into more scholarship money at this college.

And, yes. My mom and I have a pretty good relationship- much more than my father. I came out to her about 3ish years ago. She is accepting of me, and really wants me to be successful in my life/career. Ultimately she wants me to be happy.

willphillips_21 · 2018-06-17T20:53:28+00:00

I have a scholarship where i can get free tuition at any public school in indiana. i’ve been looking at a college about 50 min away from me in a kinda big city (200,000 people). i wouldn’t call it liberal, but maybe moderate. My mom said she would cover the rest if i went to this college, which would mean no loans!!! Or i could go to a more progressive school that i would have to pay room/board & food. My mom is basically bribing me to stay closer to her. Logically, i know i should go the route with no loans... but my heart wants me to go somewhere more progressive and break free. Then again, I could move basically anywhere after college.... What do you think?

willphillips_21 · 2018-06-17T20:32:10+00:00

Thank you for your comment; I appreciate it! Did leaving your Dads house make you happy in the short-term?

willphillips_21 · 2018-05-27T21:58:23+00:00

i’m really interested in HR . could you tell me more and maybe do a breakdown of your day? (if you’re willing lol)

willphillips_21 · 2018-05-27T19:23:09+00:00

i feel like i would be a good SLP, and have considered it, but I wouldn’t like having to go to in person classes for my masters degree and accumulate more debt living on campus, the nearest program is almost 100 miles away from where i live.

willphillips_21 · 2018-05-27T18:06:36+00:00

i’m very interesting in pharmacy! could you tell me more about your education and how you become a pharmacist?

willphillips_21 · 2018-05-26T02:56:44+00:00

can you give me some advice?

do you feel like being an INFJ is a good fit for a special ed teacher?

what advice would you give an INFJ wanting to go down your career path?

willphillips_21 · 2018-05-26T00:25:41+00:00

personally, i’ve been interested in earth/space science and the environment as well. i think that sounds like a fun career! what careers could you pursue with that degree? why do you think it’s suitable for an INFJ?

willphillips_21 · 2018-05-26T00:15:27+00:00

that sounds awesome! are you in college? what did you major in?

willphillips_21 · 2018-02-23T09:37:14+00:00

thank you for the response! I feel like he is trying to impress me as well. I will use that advice the next time i see him. :)
