To be true to myself. HIgh school is hard enough academically, and to always try to fit in, and not just accept yourself for who you are personally is the best way to go. I tried to fit in with the cool kids to be accepted and ended up in trouble, and here I was an "A" student with a ton of volunteer and extracurricular activities going on. I am a musician and wasn't accepted by many kids because I wasn't a jock. IT doens't matter what others think about you . Be true to yourself. Stand up for what you believe in and don't bow to peer pressure. I really wish I had done this, and will follow this rule as I move on to college. I am great at music, not so good at sports...but I am worth the time I invest in my self and my dreams. I don't need to be measured by anyone elses' ruler but my own. thank you Jordan Ashton

I have learned a lot about myself including my strengths, weaknesses and insecurities during my college experiences. College not only teaches you about the curriculum that you are studying, but it also gives a lot of life experiences that a person can not get from just doing didactic work. I have lost and gained friends during my college life, as well as developed lifelong relationships. There is so much growth involved with attending college that it is almost necessary to take the opportunity to attend school.

If one could reverse time, assuming knowledge would not change, that reversal would be beneficial. One example would be of a high school senior who graduates with honors, gets a full scholarship to go to college, but due to life circumstances loses everything. This person would be me. As my high school years went by and as I tried my best and gave my best, I learned valuable lessons; learned to fight for my rights and conquer what seemed to be life. Unfortunately decisions would prove me wrong; life would teach me how tough it is to fight. Due to circumstances in my life, I lost my scholarship and found myself in debt. If going back in time was available nowadays, I would make better decisions; I would know what to do when hard circumstances, which at the time seemed impossible to overcome, would affect me and my decisions. If I could go back in time, I would not take myself and my abilities for granted; I would value what I have and love who I perceived to be. If only reversal in time was possible, I would have conquered the world with the knowledge I have today.

I would advise a thorough search for an accredited university that offers a well established and succesful program in nursing. Once the list of universities is complete I would then recommend deciding on a location that would meet my needs (medium sized city versus large urban city). Focus on what the city has to offer for entertainment, travel attractions, recreational activities as well as civic activities. Study the univsersity and see what types of scholarships or grants can be obtained to help with tuition and always visit the campus if possible to get a sense of what it will be like to be a student there.

The first advice I would give myself while in high school would be to study hard because in high school I didn't do much of studying. I remember when I first started college; I struggled through most of my courses because I was not prepared for that much studying. If I would have studied hard in high school, I would have been prepared for college mentally and wouldn?t struggle as much as I did. The other advice I would give myself while I was in high school is to research the career fields I would be interested in. I begin college not knowing what to major in and took unnecessary courses that I didn?t even need for my major field. I should have been more focused on my education than social life. Taking a break after graduating from high school was not a smart decision because that slowed me down in my life. Even though I didn?t make smart decisions, I am proud of the struggles that I have overcome an because I will be the first person in my family to finish college in a career that I will enjoy and which also help others.

I went out of state the first year of college but now in retrosepct it wasn't worth all the money I spent. When I came back in state I got just as good of an education but at a much cheaper cost. Getting out and exploring the world is fun but now I have a huge student loan debt now to pay. If I had just stayed in state I would not have to worry about paying back my loan when I graduate and I could focus on working for the enjoyment of what I do.

I would tell myself to stay (live) at home for the first year and to study with a person who is doing well in the class. Study groups do work.
