Data analytics career path for high school students. A path has a start, a direction and a destination. The assessment gives the direction, the career pages the destination, and the STEM Farm track the start at zero. Analytics is data science with a decision attached. It rewards the person who asks what a chart really measures before believing it, and who can explain the answer to someone with no training. High school is early enough to choose classes and late enough that a working style is already visible.

Questions people ask

How is a "data analytics career path for high school students" different from a personality type test?

A type test gives you a label. STEM Compass gives you a profile on fifteen working traits and eight kinds of impact, then a directional match against each career — a number you can explain, not a letter code.

Does it cost anything?

No. The full assessment is open at tienesesto.org/stem-assessment, and every result links to a STEM Farm track that starts from zero.
