I would first emphasize the importance of receiving good SAT scores, since they are obviously very important in determining what school(s) I would plan on attending. I would also give advise on hanging around positive students and to take every class seriously as they have a direct financial impact. It is also very important to try and make a decision about the courses that most interest you as soon as possible, so that you are not wasting your time.

I would tell myself to stop beong lazy and to do my my work. college is different because once they set a deadline they mean it its not like high school where teacher give you some extra time. Nope they don't play that so once time is up time is up. Anotherthing I would tell myself is to open up and meet new peolple because none of my friends are going to the same college as me so i have to get used to talking and meeting new people.

The advice I would gave to myself is I would have tried to get more scholarships. The toughest obstacle during school, is me struggling to make ends meet on top of doing school work. Also I should have took more time getting information about the college. Make your own decision on choosing your decision of a college, not your bad situation. If I could go back to my senior year, I would have made sure my GPA was even higher than before. All in all, I should have took at least a semester off to really look what school I wanted to go to.

If i could go back in time, the most important advice i would give myself is to take the year as the last year as a adolescence and welcome adulthood and resposibility. To be more persistent when it comes to college applications, scholarships applications and grants and not to take my senior year as a year to play around, but as the year to be more serious and be productive with my time since i have so little of that left. College is not like high school. You will face finacial problem, Mommy and Daddy will not always be there to protect you from the world, you now have to be the resposible one, the one who needs to make good judgements in able to better not just yourself, your family and the next generation to come. Things will get hard and sometimes you might feel like giving up, be ready now and brace yourself for some excitements and also resposiblity which will allow you to grow into a pround and loving person.

If I was able to go back into time when I was a high school senior, I would watch over myself 24/7 to make sure I was doing everything in school the right way and was able to study almost everyday like my father to me to do. I would first find myself and then explain to myself that if you dont want to end up in a community college then work harder than usual and show up to track practice everyday and stay as late as you can to get in shap even better, so you can be the best that you can be intelligently and physically so you i can recieve a full scholarship to a university college to run track. Im saying this because I can't really achieve my dreams here as fast as I want to but It's a start. Not every one gets what they want in life but Some are lucky!

If I could go back in time as a high school senior, the first and foremost thing I would put in my head is staying on track. My first year of college, I was not necessarily overwhelmed, but I was going through some family issues and I let them get in the way of my education. As a senior in high school, I would convince myself to remain focused and keep my head up, becuase it would pay off in the end. This year I went through, what I felt was, hell and back to get back into school. Due to my mistakes my freshman year, I was determined on getting straight A's each each semester and so far I have done that. I would make sure I knew how important attendance was to classes. However, not because it was mandatory, but because its beneficial to me and my grades. Overrall my main focus would be to make sure I did not take schooling for granted, because everyday I wish i knew then what i know now.

If I could talk to myself as a high school senior I would first congratulate myself on still being alive. I would tell myself to start preparing early and make sure I didn't kill my grades the last semester of HS (don't worry, I didn't anyway). Because life would be clearer from my point of view, I would make sure I told me not to leave my parents house, even if my mom was abusive. I would trade that year of abuse for the four years I haven't been able to go to college because I didn't have their tax information. Finally, I would stress to my high school self that my friends are extremely important and will be there even when no one else is. I would probably give myself a much needed hug and then disappear in an extremely cool way. That exit, however, will take some time to think about...
Samantha
While there isn?t a lot I would change about the course I?ve taken since high school, and I?m happy with the person I?ve become, if I could go back in time and talk to myself as a high school senior, there is one piece of advice I would be glad to impart. I would tell myself that no matter how much people try to push me around and step on me, I have to stand tall through all of it and keep a firm grip on my dreams and on my sense of self through all of it. I have to assure myself that even if I feel like giving up, the stronger I am the greater my success will be. Even though I feel I?ve found my road to success and happiness, it would be nice to know that my hardship will be for a good reason.
Jessica
If I could go back in time and give myself one piece of advice it would be to go to class because if you miss class you only hurt yourself!
