I really believe that we need a paradigm shift in this nation, to take a kid fresh out of  high school say hey choose a career for the rest of your life and go off on your own miles away. Bad recipe, I think we need to encourage kids to do like Europe or else where, gap year maybe two work a little get some life experience and then choose a career. College is not for everyone, I had a similar experience I was not focused and have a learning disability. But at 42, I did it Magna Cum Laud, so I can relate.
