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.

Do prestigious universities have better employment prospects for graduates or do employers only care that you got a diploma?
I want to study at the University of Cardiff which is a top school in the UK but its expensive so I want to make sure it will be worth the investment.
Is the process of going to college, med school, residency, etc., worth it, or is a safer career option a better decision financially?
I am a High School Senior, and have always wanted to be a doctor. I am struggling to decide between my state school (UMD), which is much cheaper, and UNC. At UMD, I would study engineering, giving up on my dream of becoming a doctor, while at UNC I would study biology on a pre-med track. #Spring25
