    Hi all

    Can anyone help me with this, so basically I have taken series of aptitude test 20 in totally with in 4 years. The latest was yestuday, yes I know thats a lot. All the results concludes that I am gifted at visualizing.

    I am in the line of computing, Systems management to be exact. Those anyone know if there is anything visual about this path or should I go to the programming path or wed design"Which we don't have is this bloody college" or should I change course entirelly. Keep in my that after college I want a very good paid job like every one of you people out there.

    So what falls under a person gifted at visualizing? Anyone else gifted at visualizing?

    have you got any more to go on than just "gifted at visualizing"? Can you easily visualise problems and probable solutions? Are you artistically capable of representing what you visualise? Just visualising on it's own is a little tricky to work with.

    ok well i'd stay away from web design, if you're looking for a job with great money at the end of it, being perfectly honest, someone who is very good at visualising and presenting their vision tend to be very good teachers. Admittedly, you'd have to be very good at what you do in your line of computing but being able to convey that information is also a very important part. Would you consider lecturering maybe?

    Teachers are very visual people, if you could visualise programming concepts then it would be so much easier for students to grasp them, so its +1 for you. There are very few people out there who can do that, so definitely go for lecturing route.

    I can't see anything positive in web design. Tight deadlines, very low pay and you'll have to tame CSS style and layout sheets that behave like complete lunatics. Also, you'll get your eyes burned out to the point of headache by the time you finish your project. From my experience, it all boils down to sitting on the computer and tweaking with settings, rather designing stuff. I gave up web design right after my first project.
