Discussion for underclassmen in high school

College Search & Selection

<p>This is a thread in which younger high school students can air their worries, share information for those ignorant of how the whole process goes (like me), and for casual chat for those young eaer's.
What are everyone's stats thus far? What are some strategies for more effective study sessions and for information retention? This is pretty much an open discussion about preparations; we all are in the same boat. Well good luck to everyone in all endeavors, may the most disciplined and the most worthy win! lol</p>

<p>Hi! I am a freshman in high school. My sister is a senior this year, so I am learning more about the application process. I took the SATs in 7th and 8th grades for the CTY program, and I took the PSATs this year. Because I have seen the stresses of applying to colleges, I shall probably start to visit schools next year. The most important things for us to do right now are to get involved in ECs that really interest us, and to get good grades.</p>
