    I HAVE TAKEN THE PATH OF A MECHANICAL ENGINEER INSTEAD, thanks for the help though :)

    So i am going to be going to college as soon as i can (finishing highschool soon ) , i just want to make sure that GCC is good enough? Id do the GM ASEP class... Too bad there is no Toyota dealer class... Anyways, if anyone here has graduated or knows some info about it... PLEASE LET ME KNOW!!

    Supposably GM Mechanic Techs make about 55k a year.. True? if not... How much on first year?

    Mainly i want to know if becoming a GM Tech is a good " first real " solid job? Or should i look into a different career... Maybe Mechanical Engineer?

    Thank you sooo much!!

    If you want to spend more time working warranty jobs, work domestic. If not, stay asian.
    Engineers usually make more money than techs. Go that route if you'd rather be behind a desk.
