<p>What keeps you motivated?
I mean I really don't want to work on my applications
or study for the SAT...etc
I personally don't have a specific motivation.
I only just think how nice it would be to get everything over with.
What is your motivation?
Ivy League?
2400?</p>
<p>well my motivation is my curiosity about the truth about the universe and thats what keeps me going(astrophysics) if you do not want to study, dont, if you go to a high tier school there will most likely be even more studying. Just do what you want.</p>
<p>Being the best.</p>
<p>^And when that frequently doesn’t happen, just having fun :). </p>
<p>I hate the fact of coming in second place, but for me, it’s not the end-of-the world. I enjoy the competition that is brought about by my friends who are all Ivy-possibles.</p>
