What are the best schools for law. I am a sophomore going into my junior year, and I need advice on what colleges I should look into. I also wanted to ask if the University of Chicago is a good school for law and if I should go there because they have been contacting me for a while now.?

Should I email the colleges I am interested in and reach out to their admissions offices early. Also how can I earn scholarships easier. I do online school right now and plan to go back to actual school this coming school year.

What are some tips to staying motivated and successful in high school?

I'm a high school student that will be becoming a 10th grader this fall and I was wondering. I also want help finding a career path since I'm stuck between nursing or civil engineering. Because whil I do love helping people I also love hands on things and that's why I want to go into engineering. But I also like traveling so I was thinking I can do nursing and become a travel nurse since that's the only way I think I can do both but I still have a great love for civil engineering as well.

Should I take a gap year if so why or why not? I will graduate with two years college credit due to dual enrollment and I know that it will be difficult or tiring so by no means would I be behind because I’d be two years ahead

How do I find more hobbies to expand my scholarship applicability?

I'm only in 9th grade, so I know I have time, but I'm starting to think about college scholarships. I'm on a swim team but I'm not particularly fast compared to kids my age and even younger. I'm a straight A student but I know scholarships will require a little more than just academic success. How can I expand? Swim takes up a lot of time and I love it, so I'm not willing to sacrifice that, but I know I need to expand a little. I'm interested in musical theatre and singing, but struggling to find theatre opportunities for teens who are newer to the stage. How can I find something that'll work for me and make me a well rounded kid who's more applicable for scholarships?

How can I find challenging academic classes outside of school?

I'm only just going into HS and really want to start taking AP classes in a year or two, but my school only offers a few starting in 11th grade, and there are no honors classes. This last year wasn't very challenging for me and I'm anxious to really push myself. I'm really interested in math, finance, and psychology as career umbrellas, so to speak. What are some other routes I can take, outside of school? Do online courses actually work? How do I find good ones? Thank you!
