Studies show that if students take algebra and geometry early—starting in the eighth and ninth grade—they are more likely to go on to college than students who don´t. By taking algebra soon, you´ll probably be able to enroll in chemi stry, physics, and advanced math courses before you finish high school. Then you will have room in your high school schedule to take a second language, art or Advanced Placement course. Making good grades in these kinds of tough courses can be a big plus in helping you get into college.
Here are two of the most important things you can do right now to prepare for college:
- sign up for the right courses, and
- work hard to do well.
