By the way, this should be in Student.
if you like where you are and dont think you could cope with out your friends then stay were you are.
personally i think that going to college is the best thing to do as it takes you out of your comfort zone and forces you to get to know more people and making new friends and having new experiences can only be a good thing. Also if your a person that has trouble making new friends and your planning on going to uni then this could be a practice run if ya get me where you will still have your friends at home if it doesnt work out as planned.
good luck whatever you decide to do. only you know what will make you happy
Personally I'd say college, I know a few people who chose college over continuing school and they really love it, but that's all up to the person. I sat in a classroom the other day, happily chatting way, looked at the faces of 20/30 odd people who I'm chums, not one of them from my old school or people I knew until I came to college so!
