      I defiantly would as you get paid and your education is paid for:D and you also get experience in the world of the job you want to do than just reading about it:D However, there is some bad apprenticeships so you have to make sure you choose the right one for you and make sure you’re ready for the dedication of an apprenticeship. It’s all down to what you think would be best for you:D

      I think it depends on the person, There are lots of different paths you can take to get into engineering and you have to think about what path is best suited for you. I didn’t do an apprenticeship but I know people who have and who are enjoying there job and still very succesful

      I agree with others. Do what you enjoy. An apprenticeship is great for someone who wants to get into building spacecrafts but not so much if you want to design them. I can only recommend what I know, which is the University path, but go with your gut and what feels right. Also remember that you can change your mind and take another path if you don’t like the one you’re on.
