You might know what you want to do but circumstances and opinions change. So be positive and open to new and different things.

I would definitely advise myself to partake in more activities and more honor classes to boost my GPA. Also i would encourage myself to do more research on careers and majors so I would be more prepared for my journey. I would have definitely worked to improve my SAT and ACT scores. Overall, I do not regret the decisions i made in high school because I did graduate with a 3.41, I did participate in softball and volunteered. The only thing I am currently struggling with that i wish i had a head start on is the financial aspect of college. If i knew it would cost this much because financial aid do not always cover everything, I would have gotten a job to start saving.

I am 28 years old and have just now decided that I want to be a music therapist. I would tell myself to go to college right out of high school and not wait so long to get started. However, I would also tell myself it's okay not to decide on a major right away, if I'm not ready, but to go ahead and get some of my basic core classes out of the way. I would also tell myself that I should definitely consider taking some elective courses in areas that I am not sure I am interested in, because I might discover that I like some things I never thought I would like, simply because I was exposed to them and they really grabbed my attention. I never thought I would like classical music, but after one semester of music literature, I am now hooked on some of the greatest composers. It's ok to try new things, and meeting people my age who like those things to really makes me feel like I fit in. I would tell myself the world is full of many interesting people and to embrace those differences with passion.

I would definitley say that i wasnt prepared for college at all mentally. So i would have to make sure my work study ethic should definitley be on point.

If I could go back in time and give myself advice it would be to not stress out so much. As long as I'm serious about my education nothing can stop my success. Just keep working hard and apply for more scholarships!

the number one thing i would tell my self looking back to my senior year would be to get right into college when you graduate! i know its not something graduets want to hear but its really true. i regret taking the summer off just to get way from school for a wail. i mean high school wasnt hard and i made really good grades so more that soon wouldnt of killed me. its better to stay with it and not take breaks because it makes you not want to go back and also can keep you from getting it done in the "normal" 2 years you could. i spent a hole summer doing nothing when i could of easly gotten two classes out of the way and been a little head.
