Re: ITT academic advice
obvious answers are obvious
here's a good academic tip
this is for you middle schoolers and freshmen in high school
cut the booze, cut the drugs, cut the retarded friends
make some smarter friends, put academics as your priority
strive for a 2400, a 4.0 unweighted
take challenging courses like AP/IB courses
pursue a sport, maybe an instrument if you're already good at one
join clubs that don't suck (preferably sports or debate)
surround yourself with SMART people (the nerds, 4.0s, 2300+s)
you'll thank yourself later on when you get into a prestigious private school / state school while your friends in high school get held back / go to colleges that are worse than yours
good colleges have good reputation for a reason
