Default Help Please!!!!

I have a 95, and I can't get it to start..Whenever I try to start, it makes a series of clicking noises. The lights are kind of dim as well. My friend came and tried to boost it for me and it still doesn't start. I don't know what to do? If you have any suggestions as to what it could be please let me know!

First thing I would do is to check your fusible links. The ones that go to the battery and alternator, next I would check to make sure the fuel pump is turning on, then check for spark. If all of that is working fine, then check your relays on the firewall by having a buddy turn the key to the "on" position and you standing by the relays and feel each one click (that means that your buddy will have to turn the key 3-4 times.

Does your car attempt to turn over at all? It's hard to really pinpoint because the clicking could be the relays in the dash or engine bay. Clicking alone also can mean that there's low power and that the battery won't hold a charge enough to get a boost.
Let's just start there, because we need to make sure of the basics first.
