<p>I am a freshman, about to be a sophmore, and I am involved in Academic Decathlon, Student Council, and I voulnteer at my local library. Freshman year was definitely different from middle school, and while I was prepared, many things took some getting used to. However, it was definitely a jovial year.</p>

<p>Meh, freshman year was pretty easy.</p>
<p>Take hard classes but get really good grades. As in straight A's. You probably won't get straight A's junior/senior year, so freshmen year can make up for the GPA damage. That's my take.</p>
<p>And have fun. Seriously, have fun, and do what you like. Don't do stuff just to get into college. If colleges are impressed by what you like to do for fun, then good for you. If not, maybe that college isn't the best place for you.</p>
<p>Oooh, I'm gonna be a freshman next year...in college. Not sure what courses I want to take yet.</p>
<p>Biology H
LA 1 H
Geometry H
World History (required)
French II
Music Theory II</p>
<p>EC's: Debate League, Amnesty International, Model UN, Radio Club, Science Club, Tutoring, Math Team, maybe one or two more.</p>
<p>Freshman year will be the easiest of your high school years. Enjoy it while you can. And work on balancing school and your social life (which you should definitely have).</p>

<p>i played on tennis team and ran for track... i'm in student council, jsa, fbla, computer club, french club, academic team, math club, yearbook, art club, interact, and literary magazine... and i play piano out of school... :D i love bragging</p>
<p>haha thoughts on freshman year: it wasn't that different for me, because it was the same people as middle school and about 50 people from another middle school... the work was not much harder, although there seemed to be more papers. in middle school, i found papers an exciting thing, it seemed so grown-up and professional, and now, having a paper/project/presentation due a day (different classes) is no fun. although there is somewhat more hw this year too, i've generally gone to sleep earlier than last year (i used to get like 3 hours of sleep a night last year, due to my aim obssession; although yesterday i did go to sleep at 4...)
when you get to high school, get involved, it lets you meet more people, as well as find out what you are really interested in. i've also heard freshman is your easiest year academically, so make it to your advantage to get really good grades this year, and spend extra time developing your one talent (hopefully!) or volunteering, as it would be wise to spend more time studying later. all in all, i find the best thing to learn this year, is to stop procrastinating... but then again, that's what i'm doing to my english paper right now... :)</p>
<p>^What math class did you take your sophomore year?</p>
<p>haha i'm still a freshman... i'm signed up to take ap stats, ap calc bc, and ap comp sci next yr... (i'm not taking electives.. already finished grad requirements for those this yr)</p>
