For my senior year in high school, I can go to a career and tech center for half the day all year. I can't decide what class to take though, either Auto Body or Auto Mechanics. I think I'd probably learn more in auto mechanics, but I'd benefit a lot from auto body too. Auto mechanics would teach me to do a lot of work on my car myself and probably help me make it faster. But with auto body I'd also learn a lot and be able to put on a body kit, plus you can wash your car every day for free in that class. Since this is honda-tech most of you will probably say mechanics, but let me know what you think.

im in high school too and i work in a body shop and i really enjoy doing body work it takes alot of work to become good but if you work hard you can be good

 

For the past 2 years I have took a auto body class though my High-School and I love it. Auto Body is fun but Auto Mechanics is fun also. So if I were you I would do what you think you will learn more in or pay more attention in and like. As I am always saying do what YOU want!

auto mechanics, i am so glad i took this class. I took if for my senior year for 3 hours out of my day and i rebuilt engines, worked on my car all the time , rotated tires and changed oil and stuff. It helped me learn a lot about my car. i would recommend this

 

i'd say do the auto body class b/c i think auto body is harder to learn than auto mechanics. you can learn auto mechanics from a shop manual as it tells you what you need to do. auto body is more of a skill, i think.

just my $0.02.
