The Importance of Scholarships


Scholarships are a huge factor in paying for college but one thing that I want a scholarship for is to brag about it because getting a full ride somewhere is definitely something to brag about. Without scholarships some people might not get the education they want because they can't afford it but with scholarships people can further their education and experience a better life. I can't wait to go to college but unless I get a scholarship I won't go somewhere huge cause it is too expensive I think that scholarships can make you have the best education you just have to work and apply for it.

College Reflection


The main thing I have to do is take the ACT and I already took the SAT but I wanna take it again because I was not satisfied with my grades. I need to get my GPA up so I look like a smarter student. And of course I need to graduate high school successfully. I will take my ACT first next time I can then I will wait a little bit and take the SAT another time and hopefully do great on it. Then I will be working on making good grades and bringing my GPA up. Then I will graduate. I am where I need to be academically but I am not where I want to be because I want to have a better GPA and finish off good. I know UTA is one for me because that will be my college of choice if I get no scholarships. Now I might try and start my first two years at a community college to save some money and time.

U.S. School System vs. Others


I believe the U.S. School System is great I think it is one of the best education system around the world and I like learning the way we do here. Now what I saw in Canada is that they have schools for foreign students so they can go to school with kids that are all like each other. They do this because a lot of people in Canada's first language is French. Other than that they start about the same age as us and it is very similar to ours they have a lot of the same schools as us. It is a little bit sad though because in the U.S. we have all the resources we could need and there are still people who are better and more educated and wiser than we are.

What is a College Degree really worth?


Yes college is worth it, it is one of the biggest investments and best choices you could make. Going to college and graduating doesn't guarantee your success you guarantee your own success and you do that with your hard work, dedication, determination, and ability to work with others. I believe without a college degree you can't get as far in life as people who have a college degree and work hard. It is also a great achievement in your life to successfully graduate college. Even though college cost a lot it is still worth it because the degree you receive will end you granting you the money you paid for college and then double or maybe triple it. College isn't just something that isn't a big deal it is a choice that will impact your whole life and I believe that in today's society you won't get anywhere without an education and a good work ethnic. No matter what anyone tells you a college degree will be the smartest and most beneficial to you.
