Grad School?

So this is the current burning question in my life right now...to go to Graduate School or not. Grrrr...lets see...I want to work for an advertising agency working with print publications whether it may be print advertisements, billboards or whatever. I would also love to work for a Multimedia Company in a creative or promotions department. MY BUSINESS IS TO CREATE.

So I have been getting advice from advisers here and there and people working in the industry that I am interested in and Joe Schomos that I find and they are all telling me different things. Feel my frustration?! If I go to grad school, I can't apply for jobs as an entry level candidate because I will be a full tme student. And also I might be over qualified for some of the jobs and positions that I am interested in. Employers are starting to turn away candidates because they would be great at the job but have a higher degree and are over qualified so they don't want to pay them the big bucks so they settle for a recent grad right out of college. But if I don't go to Graduate School, I might lose out on all the opportunities to develop more skills and better my portfolio.

I hate myself! Someone tell me what to do and I will! I might be the most indecisive person out there!

But also I don't think I can do any more years of school...I don't think that school system is designed to teach...I take courses to learn the material for the exam so I can forget the second I hand in my paper to the professor. So I learned...hmmm..absolutely nothing...well except for the classes that I want to take and are not required to take...
