1. all three is best, the more you do, the better colleges and employers look up to you for the job. so do all you can, it will definitely pay off in life. Good luck. hope that helps

2. Depends on what your ultimate career goal is.The exception is First Aid/CPR. Everyone should take First Aid/CPR and you will be more of an assett to ANY company if you have First Aid/CPR. I'd only do the food handling if you were planning on entering into that industry. Community service is also something that will look good on your resume and it will also broaden your social circle.

3. Completing courses shows that you are interested and capable of pursuing eduaction on your own...ie, nobody made you take it.

Take first aid/cpr/aed adult, child, infant so that you are ready to help out someone in need. Two, some jobs require it.

Take food handling if you plan to work in the food industry or plan to work in childcare.

Community service always looks good on a resume and you can meet great people who can later give you a much needed reference. You can also volunteer in the field you are intersted in being in a career. You might find you don't like it and can try other things.

Do all 3.
