An MIS Graduate Advises
"It's the end of summer . . . and you probably still have a few days to go before school starts. College applications seem like they're a long, long way away, but actually now is the time when you can start reflecting on the big question: Who am I, and what is really important to me?""Colleges ask this question in their applications. They just word it differently, but they always really want to know: Who are you, and what do you care about?"This is a process of self-discovery and self-development. It is not something that you can just find out the night before the application is due. This is something that takes times. It takes weeks. Over the course of writing an application essay, you really find out who you are and what you care about."Right now, before your big projects start coming up on you, why don't you go out, take in some sunshine, and start reflecting on who you are and what you really care about."So listen to another student, and listen to your heart.Dr. Marlena CorcoranFounder and CEOAuthor of Year by Year to College, on amazon.com, amazon.de and many national amazon sites
