If I had the opportunity to return and talk to myself, I would advise to be more time concerned, safe as much money as possible, and research the schools that I am applying. Also tell myself that college is not as stressful as it may seem, just be more aware of the work and turning in assignments.

If there was a possible chance that I could my senior year over, I would study much harder. I also would apply to more colleges and way more scholarships. However I did leave school on a good note. Being in the choir, playing on the varsity basketball team, and being in the school production of Footloose allowed me close that chapter in my life in a good way that I wouldn't change. However, I would allow myself not to get so caught up in the partying, but study more, and take the ACT as many times as I can. I would also strive to make A's on test and not settle for just a B. Striving to be the best by working hard does pay off in the long run. In my junior year in high school, the team went threw a time when we weren't winning many games. So we started to work harder at practice. We ran our sprints, practice our shots and had attitude that we were going to win. As a result we won the City and Area Championship. Winning that championship showed that us working hard does pay off.

When your in highschool u have your parents and teachers that are there for you to depend on and help you out. but once you get to college all that changes. besides your friends you are alone, taking care of your self. your parents are not around so you have to grow up real quick. and with your grades is highschool if you are not doing so well the teacher will maek that effort to spend extra time with you to help bring up your grades. in college you have to make the effort to speak to the teacher about your grades and how to improve them.

I would say the following to myself. When you get to college do not slack up to have fun with the friends and when you get bored don't just watch tv. pick up a book and study. you have alot of time to go to the parties don't rush through your work to go and party

Be the master of your own vessel! Individuals are placed in our path for us to gather information to make an informed decision or plan. Too many of us do not take heed and this can make a distinct difference in our matriculation . Review your class selection's, doing so may mean the difference in graduating on time ! Roommates, just because your assigned one doesn?t mean you have to remain with that person! A harmonious roommate is the second most important selection you will make right after that class selection! Think about it, you?re sharing a small space (sometimes even a bathroom) with someone you?ve never met and in my case did not have the opportunity to get to know even over email through the summer. Have an open mind, but if it doesn?t fit let your housing advisor know and make that change, your sanity and grades will thank you later. Last but certainly not least, get out of your room, classroom and library and have some fun! College is an experience; don?t limit it to what?s just in a textbook, remember there is also something called the life book. Enjoy!

Go to college and don't party so much, study; don't cram 4 test, it hurts around finals

Well, The advice I would give myself is to make sure that the college I choose is the college I will want. I can choose any college in the world easily but the question is that if I choose a college will it benefit me. There are alot of colleges that will not fit the qualities you will want , so the best thing to do is check the colleges first before choosing.

When conducting your potenial colleges, it's essential that that you really get an accurate feel for the school you are considering.This consist of doing a personal tour while school is in session.By doing this you can a real visual of how life on tht campus actually is.

I would tell the student to not just find a school that they think will be fun because they have friends thats going to the same school, I would tell them to find a school that best accommidates them and their major.
