Variable rate vs. fixed rate for student loan

I'm getting a student loan and I can either choose a 3.2% variable rate or a 7.5% fixed rate. I'm new to this so I don't know too much about it, just the basics.


I have no idea what I'm going to do after school so it doesn't look like I will be getting a high paying job as soon as I graduate...meaning I'm assuming I will be paying this thing off for practically my entire life. Should I go with the fixed rate since that should be safer in the long run?
