How worried should I be about getting into college?

I have a 4.04 weighted GPA, taken 8 AP classes, mostly honors/AP courses, but no extracurriculars because of my super strict parents. My ACT scores are 27 composite, with 31 English, 30 reading, 24 math, and 23 science, but I’m working to improve them. I really want to get into LSU or the University of Arkansas, but I’m worried my lack of extracurriculars might hurt my chances—even though I got into Louisiana Tech with a scholarship. I’m also unsure about going to Tech since it’s so close to home and I want a fuller college experience. How important are extracurriculars and ACT scores for LSU and UARK? Also, do you have recommendations for any other colleges I should consider applying to?

How do I best prepare myself for after graduation, for when I have to go out and be a "real adult"?

I am currently a Junior Special Education major at Texas A&M and the end of my college career is quickly approaching and I feel wholly unprepared! I am excited about the next step, but it feels so daunting and it feels like I am about to be thrown in with the sharks.

How do I get a job related to my major after college?

I know that recent graduates rarely get a job in the field they majored in in college, and I understand that you have to make connections, but I'm not sure how to go about doing that in a manner where I will be successful. #after-graduation

How important is what I do after I graduate?

I have no idea what I'm going to do when I graduate in the winter of 2020. That's two years away, making me halfway through my college career. I get that I still have time but is it able to have a corporate career if I go and do volunteer work or travel after graduating? #after-graduation #college-advice #career #career-path #college #career-planning #high-school #graduation

I am looking to apply to graduate school this year, how do I reach out to potential advisors?

I am terrified to apply to #gradschool. I am a conservation biology student, and am looking to get into research and start grad school. I understand that the relationship between student and advisory can be very important in graduate programs, so how do I know if a program will be right for me? What if I don't know what I want to study, or have any idea what my thesis will be on? #conservation #wildlife #after-graduation #naturalresources

What is the first step after graduating college?

I am a student going into my third year of high school. College is coming up really soon and I want to be ready and prepared when I graduate college. A lot of people don't seem like they know what to do after they actually get their degree. I want to use my time to the fullest and I don't want to waste years after college trying to find a job. Please give me any advice about this type of situation and tell me about your own experiences. #college #job-search #preparation #after-graduation
