Reliable college planning consultant? Of all the recommendations we offer in this blog, this is the only one that involves action prior to the first balmy, perspiration-inducing late summer days of 11th grade. Many teens that will be seeking entry to highly-competitive colleges have mostly taken honors-level courses as freshmen and sophomores, with perhaps a lone AP course squeezed in to the 10th grade course load. Junior year is where the leap into Advanced Placement or International Baccalaureate coursework begins in earnest. For driven teens, junior year can be a whirlwind experience but those with a solid game plan which includes all of the aforementioned areas simply need to conquer the day in front of them, and then the next, and then the next…it will all lead to a successful college admissions cycle when the moment arrives next fall.
It’s easy to get overwhelmed when thinking about college. You need to figure out ways to make yourself a more desirable college applicant, study effectively for those standardized tests looming in the near future and come up with an action plan that will determine where you’ll be applying to, and how you’ll pay for it. If you’ve only just begun your high school career, don’t waste a great opportunity to start taking the steps now to jumpstart college planning.
