Technicals vs Modeling

Everyone on here’s gonna clown me for being too early, but as a junior in high school with classes wrapping up, would you guys recommended I take some modeling courses or study up on technicals? I basically have 4+ hours a day in class where I’m on my phone, and wanna be kind of productive.

Personally I'd pick topics you are interested in and read as much as you can about them. Maybe start a side hustle or learn some skills that you can try to monetize. Learn a language or something. Hell - maybe you can take an online class to knock out a college credit or two. 

 

Shouldn’t you be prepping for the SATs?
