    I think gap years are so important, especially if you’re not really sure what you want to do moving forward and you don’t feel super motivated. I went in as a food science major because I thought that was the best option in getting a job later on in life even though my passion was in literature and writing. I finished my freshman year in college at a huge school, while living at home and was not happy. I hated the school, I wasn’t making friends, I hated my major and I didn’t like feeling stuck in my hometown. So I took a gap year between my freshman and sophomore year and was able to figure out so much and really discover what I’m passionate about and what I wanted to study for the rest of my time in college. I ended up moving across the country to a smaller school and it was the perfect fit for me and I was so much happier. So gap years don’t always need to be right out of high school to beneficial either.

    I took a gap year and spent 7 months with a host family abroad and now that I'm back, everyone who's a freshman in college is struggling with online classes from the quarantine and I'm just chillin here with zero responsibilities. This gap year really worked out for me lmao. Okay but on a serious note, if you're burnt out from school, unsure of what you wanna do, or just need a break in general take a gap year!!! Constantly running on the treadmill of school life is NOT healthy and everyone needs a break to relax and think things through. I'm now super excited and motivated to go to college and more confident about what I wanna study.

What career I really wanted to take, what I really wanted to do with my life, is my current dilemma. After graduating senior high I suddenly dont know what is my passion. I cant just follow my heart,not when your not from a well-off family, and as a breadwinner Im being a utilitarian for the sake of my family. So that I can get them out of poverty. Im not happy, Im less motivated and quite... lost? I guess. But I guess everything happens for a reason, you cant figure your whole life in just one sitting, but Ill try my very best, and continue finding what Im good at and what I really want.

    I feel like it’s definitely important for people to try business classes in high school to see if they like it or not. Taking business classes helped me out a lot when choosing my major (dual major in finance and accounting and finance). Once I knew what I wanted to major I decided to pick colleges that fit my decision such as Canisius or Ualbany

    Mystical Hippo Hi! High school senior here. I just wanted to hopefully offer you some comfort/advice. I had no idea where I wanted to go a year ago, had good grades but only a couple activities and wasn’t involved very much at school. The whole process was terrifying and a weight on my shoulders. You are allowed make mistakes, it will not determine your future. Not going to lie, I had my fair share of rejections and waitlists, but it worked out okay, and I’m so excited for next year. I would suggest doing a lot of research this summer on schools (or now, if you have time in quarantine), and brainstorming ideas for your common app essay. Get excited about some safeties, targets, and reaches, and know that it will turn out okay. Best of luck! :) PS: Make sure you check your deadlines! I missed the deadlines for UC Berkeley and a few other schools because I assumed it would be January 1st or early November.

    High school senior here that didn’t do that many activities and clubs. I get you, i was literally crying while doing apps bc i thought i didn’t do enough lol. i think the biggest thing is putting down anything and everything you did do. also focus more on your essays. if you can really show who you are through the essay/essays they are more likely to overlook the lack of activities. Really make they essay as polished and meaningful as you can. Maybe ask a teacher for help if you can, or ask them to proofread. I’m pretty sure this is what got me accepted to my top school! good luck and everything happens for a reason.
