I am quite aware that many of you have already started school. But many of you are starting school soon, and I just want to give you some quick advice.
1. Keep up your grades!
It still surprises me that your grades matter from 9th grade! It's crazy! As you start this school year, remember that your grades count! Continue to stay focused and motivated!
2. Advance your college resume
This is highly important. Universities are looking for leaders and helpers. Try starting a club that sparks your interest. If starting a club is 'not your thing,' play a sport or an instrument. Community service is also an important factor. Volunteer at a soup kitchen or a food pantry -- show that you care for your community. If you are looking for more ideas on how to advance your college resume, check out this page in my blog: https://premedhighschooler.blogspot.com/p/advancing-your-college-resume.html
3. Be Yourself!
Don't let others define who you are. Be yourself and be proud too! Find the perfect friends who will encourage you and like you for who you are.
4. Have fun!
Many people forget to have fun during their high school years. They get too stressed out over maintaining good grades and getting great test scores. Although your grades do matter, try to remember that high school is not supposed to be a miserable place! Make new friends, try new things! So when you look back at your high school years, you'll have fun and happy memories.
