What are the best way to balance sports and education?

I want to know some ways people have gone about balancing sports and studying during high school as sometimes i feel like I'm unable to do both at the same time. #sports #school #time-management

How much does being decent at a sport affect college admissions?

I'm a decent runner, not the best on my team or in the area, but in the top percents. Could this help me significantly, or is it more dependent of academic ability? And this is for just getting in, not scholarships. #college #sports #college-admissions #high-school

Should I get a job during the school year?

I want the money from having a job, but I'm worried that I couldn't fit one in. I'm taking 3 AP classes and I normally have As and Bs and I'm also part of the cross country and track teams, do you think I could handle adding a part-time in? #job #high-school #time-management

I hear potential students complain about why they are not in the career that they want to be in or complain about not making the amount of money they want to make. The main thing that irritates me is that they expect things to be given to them like society owes them. I was always taught that...

I know that public colleges in Illinois are required to accept 3's on AP exams, which I might have gotten, but I also hear that private colleges can offer more financial aid.
At which type of college would I end up saving more money? #financial-aid #ap-exam
