Produktbeschreibung

This book is a primarily a guide to help high school students prepare for becoming successful college applicants. It is also written to help high school seniors and entering college students prepare for ongoing success once they arrive on campus. The foundation of success for both high school and college students is based on teaching them to learn strong communication skills, and to take care of their mental and physical health. Once that strong foundation is built, the book will then share numerous suggestions of activities that high school students can participate in outside the classroom. There is one chapter dedicated to those students who would like to consider becoming college athletes. The combination of academic achievement and extracurricular involvement will help build a high school resume that will provide meaningful content for college applications and essays. For high school juniors and seniors there are chapters devoted to researching potential college majors, financing college, and then targeting those colleges and universities that are best fits for campus visits. For those students who are entering college there is a chapter devoted to establishing a disciplined approach to academic study, which includes avoiding many common pitfalls. The final chapter is devoted to the author telling about his journey through college to his admission into medical school. The purpose of this chapter is to illustrate to students that their path to success will often require navigating around many obstacles along the way.
