I'm A Senior In Highschool, Freaking Out About Getting Everything Done In Time.


Getting A Job. The SAT & ACT. Finding The Colleges I Want To Go To, And Filling Out Applications. Getting The Schollarships And Everything That I Need. Anybody Have Any Advice?


Where To Look? Teachers To Talk To? Anything? Please.

MaddyMonster,


     First, if you haven't taken the SAT or ACT yet, register as soon as possible. You might even want to pay a late fee and take them in December. By January, you should start filling out your college applications and financial aid, and you will want to know your scores by then. Talk with your admissions counselor about this; they can help you decide exactly what to do.


     As for getting a job, good luck with that one. I have been looking for a good part-time job for two years, and the only thing I have found is pet sitting and house cleaning, both temporary. I just hope I get the financial aid to make up for it.;)


     My advice is to start right away. Don't wait until it's too late!

yea i feel the same.. it seems like theres so much 2 do in so little time. but yea u do need 2 take the ACT or SAT as soon as possible. the best thing to di is take either one twice if u can afford it. take the first test then before you get your scores back, sign up to take it again to see if u can do better because usually most people dont do so good the first trial. you can go to http://collegeprowler.com/finder/ or http://collegesearch.collegeboard.com and they'll help you find the right schools 4 u.. hope that helps

I think you need to put more information on here...  like what do you want to be?   are you taking college courses through the school????  


 


 


FACT is that early mission in not nessicary... unless your in the top10 percent....  which you didnt specifiy....


 


Job's last, if your still dealing with ACT>SAT  (take the ACT, easier)      THATS YOUR NUMBER ONE job, without it you cant look at colleges and apply...    i would take the January 23 sat... so you have december break to study  (and dont freak out about the SAT)   Yes you are alittle bit behind BUT GUESS WHAT>.. EVERYONE IS....  the people that are getting this gone, are going to top school, ivy league and so forth....  ONCE AGAIN you didnt specify....
