Through my experiences, especially in basketball and my classwork, I have been able to be exposed to new things and apply my skills elsewhere in my life. In both sports and school, I have had to work with different people with different mindsets, but have come together as a cohesive team. Even if the team struggled, I still pushed through and did what was necessary for our success. Despite being discouraged at times by failure, I came right back and moved on to the next challenge. High School has helped me develop into a leader; I work towards a goal and help others that are in for the

Did your high school prepare you for college? For me I say no, due to a few factors I lacked entering my freshman year. In today’s society young teenage adults are going to college believing themselves ready, may be in for a rude awakening.

Often students take high school for granted; consequently it shows when they reach college. For example, in high school, teachers may accept late work, tardiness, and continuous inappropriate behavior. The college classes that they will have to face will not tolerate such things as this. Preparing for the work load and lifestyle is the two most important objectives to grasp early.

During high school I also took community college courses. This program I attended was at Gateway Community College. This program has impacted my life academically and personally. High school was not much of a challenge anymore. This experience to be more knowledgeable than my peers. The opportunity I got gave the chance to view education from a different perspective. It also guided me through my first year of college. I believe that education is a important role in every child's life. I'm currently taking classes

Growing up in Redding Connecticut I attended Joel Barlow High School. This was a great experience for me because of my small town’s great sense of community. I participated in many activities during my time at Joel Barlow, the most prominent being sports. Being a part of a team really taught me to be collaborative, supportive of my teammates and also gave me the opportunity to form great and trusting relationships. So, of course when it came time to begin my college searching process, choosing one out of the hundreds of colleges and universities that would provide those same principles became quite overwhelming. And while many of my friends had already determined where they were going to spend the next 4 years, I felt very unsure of my future. As more time went by I realized I needed to focus in on

Attending community college helped prepare myself as better student and understanding of what is essential to do to succeed at a top university level. I had to teach myself specific work ethics and traits to improve myself as a student. The first trait I constantly worked on during the school year is having more self-discipline as it is necessary to become a successful. I would use intrinsic motivations to succeed as I had the desire to achieve a good GPA and transfer within two years. Also, having this important aspect is necessary as it prepares myself in a learning environment due to the fact that I’m not forced to take notes or show up to class. Another aspect that I needed to improve in is having a positive mindset. Being positive and

High School has definitely given me many potentials. Transferring from Leuzinger High School to Moreno Valley High School has made me noticed that I’ve learned a lot such as: how to problem solve, how to not give up on myself, and how to accomplish difficult tasks. For example, when I attended Leuzinger High School, I wasn’t open-minded. This is because I didn’t take any useful opportunity for granted such as tutoring or extra credit. Then, when I moved to Moreno Valley High School, I finally took a chance to take any opportunity into consideration because more people influenced me, which made me believe in myself. The first opportunity I took for myself was going to tutoring for honors pre calculus. Because I played sports, I had to balance

When I was 16 I went on a mission trip to Peru with my mother. I was extremely anxious while boarding the 7 hour plane ride to a continent I’ve never been to. I had barely any idea of what we were going to do or where in Peru we were going. We landed in Lima after a long 7 hours in the middle seat. We met the others who were attending this mission trip at the airport after we landed. We took a terrifying cab ride back to the housing. The roads were incredibly busy and unorganized. The housing was barely housing at all. The rooms were very tiny with very thin walls. Every room was separated by a deck and to walk to different parts of the building such as the bathroom, you had to walk outside. It was incredibly different from what I was used

The knowledge students gain from college is like no other, other institutions can not even compare to it. You always hear freshman say that college is nothing like high school, you can not slack off even a bit. I have had some experience with college, not going to the actual institution but taking a course. At my previous school, Cesar Chavez High, classes were offered to us by San Joaquin Delta College. I never planned on taking any college courses but it turned out when I was signing up for classes that Psychology was a college course. The class was very different compared to my normal classes, it was more of lecturing and taking

Throughout my high school career, a common theme of why we are there is to prepare for success in college. West Point High School has done an amazing job achieving this task. I know many people who have graduated from West Point and were very successful in college. At West Point High School, we are taught to strive for excellence and not accept any other alternative. We are taught to treat everyone fairly and to avoid judgment. These are all great building blocks for both academic success and success in life. While I have gone to West point High School, I have been a part of many clubs, teams, and activities. I am the secretary of the Student Council Association, which doesn’t sound like much of a job, but It has taught me how to communicate

It is often said, that high school, prepares a student for college. For certain, a student is being prepared, but only for what the world has to offer, and that is making choices on what to pursue. Certainly, most people would concur with this statement. But, the fact to consider is, that high school does not prepare a student for the major difference in the challenge.
