    Need your advice for the future

    Heres the story I started college as a health/PE teacher, but I wasn't too sure if thats what I wanted to do. So now I'm a junior, but last semester I decided to change my major to personal training. If I would have known before I started school that I wanted to do this I would have just went to a PT school, but everyone is telling me to finish. Now the credits I took for teaching don't count towards my goal now so I'm behind schedule. The school I'm at dosen't have any couses on PT except for a scientific strength training course which is a pretty good class but thats it. Now heres my dilema I can finish out school (with the remaining year and a half at least) and not know anything about personal training or I could go to a school for PT. Each has its ups and downs, but I''m so confused, I mean it would be cool to finish(god knows I hate this place and would like to finsh to say I beat Penn state) But if I do I'll be a year and a half behind my goal.

    Any thoughts
