I would consider myself very an incredibly driven person, both academically, and in my personal goals. Throughout my educational career, I have consistently strived to achieve the most I could. For me, this meant high academic achievements, honors accolades and achieving the goals that I set my mind to. I have a very strong intrinsic drive to seize every opportunity I’m given. To guarantee I didn’t close any doors to my future I applied to as many colleges as I could instead of staying in my comfort zone and applying to schools I was guaranteed admission to. One of the biggest ways that I am a go-getter is the fact that I faced rejection head on from top schools in the country. For me, it was better to try than always wonder “what-if” even though the process became extremely disheartening at times. I pushed myself throughout the admissions process to have as many opportunities as possible. Additionally, I have an innate desire to learn new things and grow through my education. I have pushed myself to take challenging Advanced Placement electives in subjects I am passionate about and I am eager to begin college to continue increasing my knowledge in certain fields. In college, my biggest goal is to graduate in three years. While this new challenge may be difficult to achieve as my degree plan involves two majors in Anthropology and Communications and a minor in Interdisciplinary Studies I also understand how rewarding it will be to complete my studies in an

When I was in high school I didn’t feel like doing any work because I used to see it as a waste of time so in high school freshmen year I had almost all f’s on my report card.

So I told everyone that I was going to change my life around and graduate high school but the way I was going they didn’t believe that I could ever change. No one really believed me and they thought I was just trying to make myself feel better.
Should student service learning hours be mandatory for high school graduation ? There are some schools who have this mandatory rule that students have to do community hours in order to graduate. Community service shouldn’t be a request in order to graduate because that is unfair for some of the students who don’t like to do community service and don’t want to be any part of that. Yes doing community service is amazing and a wonderful thing to help out our community but would you rather have someone who is forced to do it or someone who gladly does it because they want too ?
This idea of experience surprisingly goes hand in hand with graduating on time and here is why. Colleges everywhere are pushing for four-year graduation timelines. The faster a university can churn out diplomas the better. In fact, some states like Florida even have laws where if a student goes above a certain number of credit hours the student then has to the out of state tuition regardless of residential status.

The final portion of the model requires two years at a four-year university. At this stage, it is imperative to see what factors may be helping or hindering students’ advancement towards a baccalaureate, since some ECHS students tend to deviate from the six-year model at the undergraduate level. These students may choose a different pathway due to various reasons: i.e. changing major, taking a semester off, and not graduating with an associate’s degree as a junior in high school (requiring more time to complete a baccalaureate degree). The research done in this paper will begin to focus on the dependent variable of college graduation, with the goal of identifying the variables that may hinder or increase the odds of obtaining a baccalaureate
