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.

Is there a difference if I take biology or biochemistry when I am planning on going to medical school?
I am starting my freshman year of college in fall of 26 and right now my major is biochemistry. When I chose it I was told that I should take premed or biology if I plan on going to med school. I chose biochemistry because I enjoy the chemistry aspect but still need the biology. What I am...
What happens if you want to switch your major before you start college?
I am 99.9% sure I want to be a Biochemistry major. The lingering question is whether I should be Biochemistry or Chemistry. Is my college advisor the right person to call?
What is the most difficult or hardest part about getting into the theatre industry, for theatre production and/or technical theatre specifically? #Spring26
In college, I intend to be a Drama/Theatre major and I'm just curious about the difficulties that come with that career.
How can one not lose sight of their other passions while pursuing a career to make change in the world? #Spring26
I hope to pursue a career in public policy, foreign affairs, or international relations, but don't want to lose my love for filmmaking, writing, the outdoors, and more. #Spring26
What kind of supports are available to help incoming college freshmen prepare themselves academically and socially to transfer to a more prestigious university? #Spring26
Specific contacts, books/websites, etc.
Anything helps! Just looking to get started, hoping someone out there will have some more information on this topic.

Do you think the major computer engineering is still useful in this current job market & climate?
I'm unsure whether I should continue pursuing that major or choosing another? If you think I should choose another, which would you recommend?
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.
Are internships worth the time investment if they don't give you money Are paid internships hard to come by? What would make a non-paid internship worthwhile??
I want to work as an architect but I don't know if I will be able to afford a non-paid internship after college because I will certainly have loans to pay off.
What are the different places you did your residency and/or fellowship and how did it better prepare you for your Medical Examiner Certification ?
