Kaplan University-Davenport Campus Top Questions

I would focus more on Advanced Placement courses in order to give myself a better advantage. I would also compare the cost of tuition at all of the universities that accepted me. I now understand how important the financial aspect of getting a higher education is. Lastly, I would chose a school closer to home because the family support is important during college.

My advice will be to stay focus because if you don't reach for something, you will settle for anything, and achieve nothing. Besides, success is not measure by the size of your assignment, but the obedience to your assignment.

Go to school! Learn everything that you can! Make that knowledge your own, and then share it with everyone that you can.

I would tell myself to go to college right away so I could go to anyone I want and not have to choose because of proximity to my children. I love my kids but it would sometimes be easier to go to school instead of stay home. Work hard and don't fall behind. Keep your grades up and make your family proud. You are going to have a house full of great crazy kids.

I would tell myself to do exactly what I did. Wait a few years after graduating high school to start college that way I am not overwhelmed after 12 years of school. This also gives you time to explore the work force and decide on your career. Take online courses so I can work full time and have a flexible schedule. Its best to work while attending coolege so you can pay for it. Online classes allowed me to work at my own pace and go over the material as much as I wanted in the comfort of my home.

If you want to achieve your goals in finishing up your degree, a student needs to sacrifice his social life a little bit by reading all the assignments, handing the project on time, and don't hesistate to ask questions to your professor if you don't understand the lesson. Focusing on your school without being a procastinator or putting your social life on hold will be hard, but on the other hand, graduating with a degree along with grades that will landed you a better career job is priceless.

Jerri, I know you want to leave school to be married and start a family, but please, wait. You?re only 16, and it will be another seven years before you finally realize you want to go to college. I know you feel unsure about what you want, and you?ve never believed you had a talent, but you?re wrong. No one else loves to read the way you do? think you can?t get paid for that? Think again? be an editor. Don?t be afraid to succeed; college is so much easier than you dreamed. You?ll have your babies, even if things don?t go as planned. So finish school, start college, and you?ll be able to give them the world.

If I was able to go back in time and talk to myself as a high school senior; I would express the valuable relationships that come with advancing one's education. I would express to myself the inevitable possibilities open more to my vision if furthering my studies with a positive attitude. I would express to myself the necessity in going further into my studies with a clear and free mind and understand there will be rough times but they are challenges to make me stronger and more equipped to deal with the life that is ahead of me. I would make myself aware that no matter the struggles that will come, learning is fundamental and extremely valuable to having an enriching life.

My advice would be to go directly to college from High School. Once you get out of the school routen life happens and it is hard to get back to college. College is so important to ones future and a neccesary these days. Once you have a family, which I did, it is hard to find the time to add a college education to the agenda. Now that I have gone back to college I know that working, taking care of three children and college is difficult, however it can be done, but I think if you go directly to college from High School you will not have the same difficult obstacles, and college would be fun and exciting. This is an experience you will not get after having a family. So go to college have fun and get the most out of your education.
