What summer plan should I do?
Answered

I was accepted into a conservation summer program for this summer. Only 8 people were selected, and it'll be for a month over the summer. If I go, then I wouldn't be able to work and get money to go for a trip to Iceland next year. I was only going to have enough money for the trip if I worked. So, do I go to the summer program this summer? Or do I work over the summer so I can go to Iceland for a week?

Do you mean this in a “Which would look better for college” way, or a “Where would I have more fun” way? Because if you mean “Which would look better for college?” then the summer camp is the way to go. Only 8 people got accepted- good on you! Great job, by the way. If you mean “Where would I have more fun?” then none of us can help you. Would YOU have more fun at the summer camp, or working all summer and a week in Iceland? whichever you want better is the best investment.

Good luck with your decision! And congratulations on your camp admission.
