What should I do during the summer before my freshman year or during my freshman year of high school to have a strong foundation for college apps?
Hello! Thank you so much to anyone who answers my question(s)! Interested and open to anything. Also, one of the reasons I'm asking because my parent is because my parents are thinking of wanting me to graduate early.
Should I take the SAT or ACT or both? When should I take them?
I'm a rising freshman and I've already completed math classes up to Algebra 2. However, the reading and comprehension part is not my forte. I'm wondering if I should take the SAT/ACT in my freshman year or not, and if I should take both.
For my freshman year, should I take AP Precalc AB or BC? If BC, should I take Multivariable Calc & Lin Alg or just AP Stats for my junior year? If I take AB, that means I will most likely take Calc BC in 11th grade, which doesn't sound too appealing. The idea is if I'm taking BC, I could directly go on to Calc BC for sophomore year, so I could have my 11th grade year easier and just take AP Stats instead. However, I'm just worried it will be too much to handle.
I'm currently a rising freshman and I've taken all previous math classes before.
What classes are highly reccommended for me to take in high school if I most likely would major in business?
If possible, please list out clearly the specific classes I should take for each grade. I am in 8th grade, rising freshman.
What led you to want to pursue a career in business instead of a career like Med, for example??
I'm a 13 year old in 7th grade interested in business or business administration

When do I become a dedicated mentee? When do I devote time to mentoring someone? When do I take experience to a team and rely on group learning and not give it a formal title? I have a nice set of skills I would love to share but I don't have a great outlet to share them. I am by no means a...
I keep hearing over and over that it is important in one's profession to have "AI skills". I understand how AI is going to change the work force in the future, but what particular AI skills are important to have?
So far I am a SME with AI computer hardware, networking and infrastructure. I have built an agent at home, used few shot tuning on a generic LLM, and did a resume builder and mock interview on it. I have a small prompt library that I keep at work and at home, slowly expanding to making skills...

With regards to personal branding. What aspect of personal branding do you look at most when reviewing a candidate or employee? What should shine and what should be avoided?
Starting my professional life in the 00's, there was never a need for personal branding unless you worked for yourself and had a particular skill. Now it seems to be almost as important as a resume. From me starting out professionally with employers saying "you may not want to get a Facebook...
