Hello Everyone! Ever wondered what you should be doing to get ready for college? As you go through high school, there are specific tasks you will want to complete. Check out the recommendations below for each grade level. Freshmen Keep working on your study habits. It is important that you figure out how you learn the best. Your GPA does matter now. Make sure you are turning in your homework and studying for tests. Sophomores You may have figured out how you learn the best, but make sure that you are putting those study techniques into practice. This is the time to start thinking about the ACT's. Take the PLAN test that is offered at your high school. This will give you an idea of areas to study to prepare for the ACT next year. If you are not sure what to do, ask your advisor. It is never too early to start getting ready
Juniors I have three
letters for you: A C T. This year should be focused on getting
ready to take the ACT. Upward Bound will be offering may ACT
workshops. It is recommended that you attend these workshops. In
addition to the workshops, a pre-test will be given in November to assist
you in knowing the areas that you should be focusing on to get ready.
Do not think that you can wait until the week before the test to study.
A little at a time is better than a big cram session. |
