what are some take-away advises for a high school student?

#advise #student #college

Thank you comment icon Take away advice for a high school student would depend on what your interest would be. Are you looking to go to college or the workforce? If college, you should have already begun your application processes. If you are unsure of what you are interested in you should take the O*Net Interest Profiler Assessment. It’s free!

Marlowe’s Answer

Make the most of your remaining time in high school! I really regret not participating in more senior events, because the ones I did were really fun and some of my favorite high school memories. Push yourself to meet new friends and seek out new experiences; in some ways you have more freedom (in terms of time) in high school than you do in college. I'd also recommend taking extra interesting classes if there are any that catch your eye! I took some pretty random classes senior year but I ended up enjoying them a lot more than my required classes. But more than anything, remember high school isn't the end-all-be-all. You're going to have so many amazing, unexpected experiences at college and after!! Make the most of what you have now but get excited for the future too. Good luck!

Hello! One of the things that I did that was a game changer for me when I was graduating was having built a nice relationship with a guidance counselor at my high school. I found one that was young and I felt I could relate to. It was nice to have someone there to listen to me when I had challenges with teachers and was really helpful when I was making decisions about where to apply and go to college. Another thing to remember is to take chances and explore colleges and universities, if you are planning to go straight to college. A lot of people stay near their hometowns or go to the same schools as their best friends. I went out of state - from Maryland to Louisiana and it was one of the best decisions I've ever made!
Lastly, have fun - especially your senior year!

Pedro’s Answer

Hello!

My advice to you is to research which courses match your career goals and then try to understand how the market works, asking more experienced people (teachers, friends, family, ...) for advice.

Choose carefully, because you´re likely to spend the first 10 years doing the things that you've learned.

Best of luck.
