Shelby’s Answer

It depends on your college of choice, but it is well worth noting that duel-concurrent enrollment would greatly benefit you in early years! There are programs (depending on your state and district) that allow you to earn college credits in high-school. I heavily suggest looking into these classes as not only would they boost your GPA, but these are favorable to colleges as it shows your dedication to academic prowess. There are also career quizzes that allow you to view your preferences, and this will be most helpful in choosing a major. Although it will take a while, you must find a major that you are concrete about. Keep working toward those things, and make sure to engage as many extracurriculars on that topic! In summary, ask your district about duel enrollment and volunteer for things in your desired field!

Margarita’s Answer

To confirm the answer above, DO go ahead and find out what the entry requirements in a specific college are.
What the college areas of strength are, what they are known for. For example, if it's athletics, then get more athletic experience. If it's in science, get more science classes or volunteer at lab. Get your references letters from teachers and professors from those areas.
If you know your major, it will also help to contact any college professors or faculty of that major and ask them how to maximize your school time.

katy’s Answer

I am going to be applying to colleges soon and depending on the type of college and what you are planning to do it can vary. I had planned on going to nursing school at a community college but changed my mind, but I started to prepare for that by taking AP classes and focusing on my GPA which also wouldn't be bad to do in general no matter where you apply. That is probably the biggest and easiest thing, but you could also try looking up what school specifically you are looking into or what career field and find things that can speed up the process.
