Indiana Institute of Technology Top Questions

so foar i have gotten out of college friendship, learn how to live on your own and every decision you make you got live with it.

I would explain to myself how important it is that I study for my SAT exam, and get all of my work turned in on time. I'd also tell myself how important it is to soak up the high school scene as much as possible because even though I had a lot of fun in the first three years of high school, your senior year is capable of being more fun, and it is definitely more important. I would make sure that I explained how important it is to apply for as many scholarships as possible, and to take advantage of the opportunities that some older and more experience adults can give me. Most of all I would make sure that I understood the importance of making the best grades possible, and having as much fun as possible at the same time.

If I had the opporunity to go back in time to talk to myself as a high school senior, the first thing I would tell myself is to not take a year off and go directly to college. The experience I had when I told that year off was not a pleasant one and I could had use that year to get started on my career, by attending college. The second thing I would tell myself is to work hard because the infamous same words many teachers have said to me, "college is not the same as high school, it's much harder becuase the professors are not going to babysit you through out college, which it is very true. The third thing I would tell myself is to do not give, even though it is harder than high school, but in the end it would worth it.

The first thing i would tell my self is that find a job on campus or near my college as soon as possible. Then i would tell my self that going to class and paying attention is more important than it was in high school. That waiting to the end of the semester to work on your grade is a very bad idea since 9 times out 10 you wont bring it up. when teachers give you extra credit Do IT!!!!. teachers usally dont give out extra credit so when they do it can bring up a letter grade. when living on campus make friends and go to campus events. when you need help go to your teachers office during their office hours, because they will help you out the best they can, but you have to go to them. after all this advice i would lastly say dont be afraid of tying new things and to be yourself because once you start pretending its hard to stop pretending.

I would tell myself to not be so scared because the education is not a big transition right away. I was so nervous I didn't learn enough in highschool, that I wouldn't do well in college. But, I found out that if I payed attention and asked questions I would do fine. I would also tell myself that its not all about going to parties. I missed a lot of things my friends were doing because I attended highschool, Cosmetology, and I worked. I felt left out. Now when I see those people living the same way I don't feel left out because they are not on the road to success. Attending college can be fun, but you can't lose focus on why your there.

You get out of college what you put into. Putting things off until the last minute is going to catch up with you, and you need to become much more accountable. There is plenty of time to socialize and have fun, but make sure that the homework and any school work comes first. It's too easy to get caught up in the party scene and forget about whats important. Also, stay close to your family. When your busy and stressed out, don't forget that they are your biggest supporters. Your loved ones are always there for you when you need them. DO NOT take them for granted. Most of all, enjoy yourself. Just like high school blew past, college will fly by even faster. People, and even your friends, will come and go right before your eyes. So sieze the day, and live with no regrets. Work hard, and you will be rewarded. If you can finish college and tell yourself you wouldn't have changed a thing, you know you did the the right way.

After sitting in the admissions office at my college now, and seeing it through my own eyes; life isnt a breeze and everyone wont go and do it for me like I previously thought. I would tell myself to get it together and stop being lazy. Speak up. Ask questions. I never really asked the counclers much questions so I ended up only filling out two scholarships which I ended up getting both. If I had just opened my mouth, I would have gotten so much more. I always thought that I can easily get through college, just sign here and there and everythings good..right? But after I realised how stressful this is, id tell myself to save more money than spending it on video games. I wish I would have worked harder in school. But I would also tell myself to enjoy highschool and get ready for the real world.

To concentrate on my school work and try to get a better gpa than a 3.0. I would also tell my self to fill out as many scholarship applications as possible and to take them more seriously. I would also tell myself to save a lot of money so that i wouldnt have had to take out many loans.

I would tell myself to be more outgoing. Get out with the on campus activities as soon as you can and be extremely active around campus and attend the sporting events. It is a small campus so you can get to know everyone really well. Always purchase the lowest meal plan available, you can always increase your meal plan, but you cannot decrease it, and it is a huge waste of money. Time management is key, staying up till 3 AM typing a paper that is due at 8 AM is not a good idea, trust me. Make the most of the friends you meet and keep the connections with professors, these are the key to your future.

I would tell myself to do exactly what it is your doing, but to branch out and talk to more people. Especialyy Melanie she is an amazing person.
