    I have a possibility of a good job in the states, its looking good and id really like to work abroad. I probably will get it at this stage, but i am halfway through a college course and am not sure whether to go for the job or not!
    has anyone had this situation before?!

    Is it a course you can go back to? If so I would definately take the chance, it would put you miles ahead of others who will be leaving college at the same time as you, what with experience and a qualification....Thats just me though !!

    Kinda. I had finished two years at one place and I was transferring to another college. In the middle of that, I got a job, with an opportunity to work in the US and I jumped at it.

    Best decision ever. I went back later and finished college part-time.

    Go for it.
