Yeah, there's a ton of utility skills you need to get out of the way, so if you're still uncertain, those are a good choice to train no matter what. And like others said, even Indy ships have their uses, whether you're in high sec or a warzone. You can also find a lot of decent 30-60 day rookie skill plans that train you through the necessary shit as efficiently as possible. I think the Eve Uni wiki has one.
