text: Getting advice from other people can help when making a decision because they may be more knowledgeable or experienced on a topic. It is important to listen to these people because they have a better understanding on the possible outcomes, pros, and cons. Conversely, you should take the advice of someone who is less knowledgeable or is less experienced on a topic into account less. For example, asking your friend who has a bad grade in science class for help on homework is not a good idea. Asking your parents, siblings, or a friend that is very good at science is a better choice. Next, people who are more experienced and have made the right or wrong decision in the past are also people that can help you make better choices because they can tell you first-hand what to do in certain scenarios. When needing to know whether you should take a class over the summer or not, asking someone who has already been in the class will have a better understanding on if you should or should not than yourself or someone who has not taken the class. The advice of more qualified people should be searched for when trying to make the best choice.
