<p>This reminds me of a thread I read last year: <a href="http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/college-admissions/497425-what-i-would-have-told-my-11th-grade-self.html%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/college-admissions/497425-what-i-would-have-told-my-11th-grade-self.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>It's quite a good read actually. But on topic, I'd totally apply myself more, looking back, I realize that I had so much more potential and opportunities that I should have taken to my advantage.</p>

<p>psats
all my chem tests so far this year</p>

23

<p>done more electives, harder courses, more studying, do sports</p>

<p>been more active overall</p>

24

<p>joined tennis and studied harder (now that I know reading textbooks actually helps)</p>

25

<p>I should've taken IB chem and IB art and not turned into a psychotic bulimic.
It all worked out in the end though- I got into NYU last week!</p>

<p>So, all the juniors, sophomores, freshmen and pre-teens(I'm hoping not) it won't kill your future if you mess up a bit- just don't give up on yourself.</p>

26

<p>Wish I tried harder in grade 9 and 10.
I really feel like I screwed myself over. v_v</p>

27

<p>i would have studied for sat/sat 2s</p>

28

<p>not play video games for 4 hours a day back in 9th and 10th. i got 3 b's out of that. i could've been ranked a few spots higher now if it weren't for them :(</p>

<p>I wish I would have taken more pictures of myself, and hung out with my friends more so I could remember it better. HS was a grind for me, (until this year).</p>
