What are your goals for the upcoming school year?

<p>So the title basically describes it. What are your goals for this school year? Make more friends? Achieve a certain ACT score? Maybe make the varsity basketball team?</p>

<p>Grade: Senior
Standardizing Testing ACT: get 34+ in september (although I can settle for my 2000 sat) and 750+ subjects tests in math 2 and chem in october
School work: 5 on AP Calc and Stat, college letters
School life: get prom date lol
Sports life: (Track) get 400 record and and 4x400 record</p>

<p>I’m a Junior.</p>

<p>I wanna take the SAT twice. (Not really setting goals on the score I want though, so I don’t disappoint myself, hahaha.)
Get at least a 96 in all my classes. (Probably won’t happen, but I can pray.)
That’s it really. I’m honestly not one to set definite goals so far ahead. I focus on short term things like a test this week or something. Not really sure if that’s a good approach, but that’s what I doo.</p>

<p>Break out of my somewhat lazy character and achieve a 4.0 with the 4 AP classes (maximum) I’ve signed up for.</p>

<p>Class: Junior</p>

<p>1) Get my ACT to a 35 (34/35/35/35) or similar.</p>

<p>2) Get a 5 on AP English Lang. and AP Chem.</p>

<p>3) Make NMS. (Meanwhile, hit a 720+ on CR.)</p>

<p>4) Get all As.</p>

<p>5) Learn 10 piano pieces.</p>

<p>6) Pick 2 reaches, 2 matches, and 2 safeties.</p>

<p>7) Get leadership positions in Student Board, Multicultural Club, Key Club, and NHS.</p>

<p>…I think that’s it. Academic-wise anyways.</p>

<p>-Do well in Academic Team, possibly making states.</p>
