Webster University Top Questions

I would tell myself that it is alright to be honest and open up faster to the people surrounding me. My time at Webster has proven to give me some of the best friends I will ever have and also some of the strongest relationships I have had to date. I would also tell myself to not worry about the little things. It doesn't help to stress out about things that just aren't as important as doing well in class and learning as much as possible to succeed in life. Lastly, I would tell myself that I made the perfect decision to attend Webster. This is because in just one semester I have grown from a post-high school "young adult" to an adult ready to conquer the world. I have the confidence and the drive to do whatever it takes to be the best Audio Engineer in the world and I will stop at nothing to reach this goal.

The advice I would give myself is to absorb everything you can, and to start living independently. Something that didn't quite hit me when I started college was how much responsibility you have. I woud tell myself to take more initiative into getting things done way before they were due, or study for a test a day at a time before you cram it all in the night before, because once you make that a habit in high school it stays with you. Not only that but life is so much easier when you have a grasp on t. I also would spend as much time at home and with my family and friends as much as possible, because you honestly don't know what you have until it's gone, and to take advantage of everything that is offered. There are oppertunities as a high school senior you may never get to do again. I would tell myself to finish senior year with the question in mind, "If I were to end now would I be satisfied with my work, my grades, and my relationships?" because with that question in mind, life is so much sweeter.

I would tell myself, " Don't be afraid about stepping out into the real world, they're people out there willing to guide you if you surrender yourself to just one leap of faith". After some few years out of school due to lack of funds therefore lack of motivation, I adopted a new way of thinking. This quote by Dr. Wayne Dyer changed my inner and outer way of thinking and living. Quote: " If you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change". And it's so true. Thank You.

First of all, if I could go back into time I would go further back than my senior year because your senior year is not what makes or breaks you. I would tell myself to get over the fear of getting a job so I could save some money, I would tell myself that doing the A+ program is essential, and, most importantly, I would tell myself that your GPA and ACT scores are much more important than you'd think. If I went back into time and talked to myself as a senior in high school, there's not much that I could change. I'd also, however, tell myself that looking for scholarships don't hurt.

If I had the opportunity to go back to adise my high school self, I would commend her scholarly focus, but also stress the importance of experiencing the social environment that surrounds her. That is something that I have since expanded my interests to include. Academic education is an extremly important aspect of our lives, but we benefit indefinitely from life experiences. It is these that fortify our character and shape us into the person that we are to become. While transitioning into a lifestyle where I was more independent and in control of my own affairs, I discovered this life lesson. I feel that I have grown a tremendous amount in the past few years and if given the chance it is this wisdom that I would pass onto my younger self.

Start looking for a job now to pay for extra stuff (movie theaters, subway tickets, fast food restraunts etc.) because they are expensive. Also I would reapply to somewhere else where I do feel that I belong and not having to live anti-social at school becuase of who I am.

Save up as much money as you can - there are too many things to do, but they normally need money. Take more advanced classes - once again there are too many things to do in college and never enough time to fit in all the classes. Everything else, the college will teach you

If I were to go back in time to talk to myself as a high school senior, I would have great advice for college success. The most important advice would be to save money because Mom and Dad will not be there to buy groceries. I would also say keep the partying to a minimum because if you go to bed late, you will probably want to skip class the next day. When you skip class, your grades start to slip. When your grades start to slip, you get kicked out of college. The professors do not care if you show up or not, it is your money that is wasted if you do not go to class. My last words of advice are do your homework and study.

Don't procrastinate on choosing classes and don't place as much emphasis on a major!
