will

[Unregistered]

Can someone tell the different between "will" and "am going"

[Casiopea]

Be going to expresses a plan.

Ex: I am going to be a doctor. That's my plan.
Ex: I will be a doctor. It will happen. I am 100% sure.

Ex: It's going to rain. It looks like it.
Ex: It will rain. The guy on the weather channel said so.

Does that help?

will is used for

• general predictions or statements about the future
• offers and promises (I'll take a look at it later.)
• spontanious decisions (I'm hungry. I'll go get something to eat.)

going to is used for

• certain predictions with present signs (Look at these clouds! I think it's going to rain soon.)
• intentions and plans (We're going to go to Spain next year in the summer.) --> if it's already a fixed arrangement you use the present progressive, though: We're going to Spain next summer. (=We've already bought the tickets.)

Hope that's clear enough
