Something people would be surprised to know about you: I love getting called on in class! I enjoy participating and talking through difficult problems with teachers and peers. I comprehend the material better and find useful ways to apply it to my own life.
Plans after graduation? I would like to get an advanced start on college by taking some discounted online summer classes. After that, I plan on attending a small private Christian college that can provide the resources I need for my major.
How will you be deciding on a college? Money is a large factor. I want to attend a small liberal arts school, but that all depends on what scholarships I am offered. I have a short list of where I want to go, but I am trying to review all my options. I get some of the best advice from friends who have already attended colleges I am interested in. Their experience will influence my decision immensely.
Biggest worries about going to college? Staying healthy in the midst of all those campus germs! I can handle finals, internships, and group projects, but it seems like colleges are breeding grounds for all those nasty viruses!
What are you most excited about? Being able to exercise my talents in a environment where it counts! I finally get to pursue my interest for living.
