Can you still get a good career Even if you dont take college courses

Can you still get a good career Even if you dont take college courses?
So my ideal career is to be a translator in japanese, but sadly Missouri really doesnt offer those kind of classes here...So i'm wondering if I work hard w/a native tutor online and use software like rosetta stone would that really hurt my chances since I dont have a college degree? Or can someone find me a list of colleges in Missouri that offer japanese classes because i'm having a hard time finding any -.-

Answer 1 :
Yes lol. You only need to be fluent in both languages to be a translator. Rosetta stone is the worst program to try to learn Japanese, it has a lot of errors and mispronunciations, its really not worth the hassle. Your better off useing other great websites like http://www.123japanese.com http://www.japanesepod101.com
Answer 2 :
A website is not always the best way to learn a language, especially a language like Japanese. They are not always a good, reliable source to learn a language; the authors of most online courses have no teaching credentials whatsoever. If you really want to learn, then take some courses or invest in a good textbook. The best way to learn Japanese is through a variety of methods. You need to work on your grammar, listening, speaking, reading and writing. Its best to think of these as separate categories and focus on each specific category as these require different methods and techniques. Start by learning the basics through grammar. These books really helped me: â€¢ Shin Nihongo no Kiso I & II â€¢ Shin Nihongo no Kiso Japanese Kanji Workbook â€¢ A Course in Modern Japanese by The University of Nagoya Press â€¢ An Introduction to Modern Japanese by Osamu Mizutani & Nobuko Mizutani How to Learn Japanese http://japan-australia.blogspot.com/2010/11/how-to-learn-japanese.html

Answer 1 :
colleges are actually looking for 3 years now... :(
Answer 2 :
It will really limit the schools you can apply to if you don't have at least 2 years of foriegn language.
Answer 3 :
Most colleges want you to have at least two or three years of the same foreign language in high school and many high schools require you to study a foreign language for X amount of years in order to graduate anyway. If you don't take a foreign language in high school and you do get accepted into a college, you're probably going to have to take it in college because I bet part of their graduating requirements includes taking two or three semesters of the same foreign language. If you take it in high school you can test out of having to take any foreign language classes in college.
Answer 4 :
Your high school probably requires you to take a foreign language for at least one semester but most require even more. Yes, the college will care.

Answer 1 :
DUHH idk bout mizzouri but lsu can and Georgia CAN!!!!!!!!! go dawgs
Answer 2 :
LSU and Missouir have a few players that can make the NFL, the Dolphins have all players that can make the NFL. So, no
Answer 3 :
dolphin would kill them
Answer 4 :
ya right,no way jose,college kids can't beat nfl teams no matter how bad they r ,these guys r pros not some 1/2 *** college team,,,
Answer 5 :
yes.......even the '72 dolphins
Answer 6 :
no doubt about it. long time ago there was an annual game in the start of the season between the top college team and the so-called champion pro team. gues was in august each year. sometimes the big college team whipped the pros back then. ohio state would stomp miami. several more could do the same.
Answer 7 :
no way! are yuo crazy grown men against kids...whats wrong with you?
Answer 8 :
Absolutely not. More SEC/BIG12 fan silliness I see.
Answer 9 :
The issue would be how much different the rules are and that would be a issue for the college kids. If it wasnt for the rule changes, I think that LSU could in fact beat the Dolphins
Answer 10 :
You dont get how good the pros are. The Dolphins are filled with guys just as good as Glenn Dorsey, except they had enough experience to make it in the pros. No College team can beat a pro team, ever. Just like a high school team cant beat a division 1 or 2 college team.
Answer 11 :
Nope, LSU or any other college team would get destroyed.
Answer 12 :
i think if they played LSU would lose 80 to 3
Answer 13 :
Nahh...It would just make the Fins think they're better than they really are.
