About the Book

After High School is a best-selling self-directed guide for high school students to help them plan their future. The book contains a self-scoring Interest Survey, a self-scoring assessment of abilities, and a self-scoring assessment of values. After High School helps students to identify their strengths and then shows them how to best match these to occupational categories and also specific careers. The book also contains an up-to-date occupational list of more than 450 careers. In addition, information is provided to help students set their future goals and better understand some of the factors that contribute to success in achieving their goals. After High School is widely used in high school career or future planning workshops and classes. It is also the perfect resource for home-schooled students because it is easy to use and easy to understand. After High School is like a shortened practical version of What Color is my Parachute or What Color is Your Parachute for Teens, two of the all time best-selling career planning books. It is similar to Justin Muchnick's book A Teen's Guide to College & Career Planning except that After High School actually provides a proven Interest Inventory that students can complete in about 30 minutes. The Interest Inventory is self-scoring so that students can immediately see how their interests best match various careers in the 450 careers that are provided in the book. This popular book is also similar to Nicholas Lore's book The Pathfinder: How to Choose or Change Your Career for a Lifetime of Satisfaction and Success, except that the content of After High School is specifically written for teenagers who are currently in high school. After High School is written by Brian Harris who is an award-winning teacher and counselor. Brian has worked as the head of guidance departments in several high schools as well as being a professor on the faculty of education at a prominent university. After competing After High School, students have made some of the following comments: - this has taken so much stress off me; I now have a good plan for my future - this was fun and so easy-to-use - I have a much better idea now of how to plan my future after high school - this helped me and my parents to set a more realistic path for my future - I never knew there were so many jobs that matched by interests - this helped me to understand how my interests, abilities and values all work together to help me select a future career that I will satisfying - I loved completed the interest test. It showed me exactly how to match my interests to the best careers for me - I completed the whole book in one evening. I learned so much about myself.
