Okay so im not actually in college yet. Im a Junior in high school, and I need help. I play softball and I'm gonna play sports in college, like that's how i'm going is a scholorship for it. I know I don't have to apply for college yet, but i'm not that smart so I bet my ACT score will be low. And my dream college is University of Florida, but I can't go there. How do I choose a college and talk to them about all of this? I need a good college. I'm thinking about University of Arkansas, but I just don't know. Can someone please help and give me advice on what to do. Or just advice about anything.

talk to a counselor and make a plan, if you cant go to your dream, first choice college, its okay, look around (maybe a more suitable college is out there for you?) but idk how it works if you want to do a transfer from one college and move up to university of Florida, explore your options darling... there are many ways to achieve this despite not being book smart, you dont have to be"smart" smart, just work hard and be passionate towards your goal <-- thats my best advice! Good Luck

I would definitely go and talk to your counselor. If you want to play softball in college, you need to let your coach know and he can reach out to schools for you. Do not stress too much about the ACT! Get a study book and practice. It is not as scary as it seems. Just work hard and things will fall into place. Good luck with everything and if you have any questions just let me know!

    The best antidepressant is when my wishes are honored. An example, the faucet in my apartment was running although the knobs were turned shut all the way, and one of the pulling strings on my ceiling fan came off. As soon as I notified my maintenance man, he was quick to reply with the work order. RAPID response... he's getting my services around my apartment done. I appreciate my landlord and...

    Hello,so I'm currently in a weird relationship with my long distance ex who I've never met in person and it's taking a toll on me. I've lost 15 pounds and lost my appetite, but I'm really attached to him. We've had a lot of problems and I think that has caused me to gain severe anxiety. I don't know if I should wait until it gets better or what. Everytime I've blocked him, it has tend to make me...
