Classes

So articulation is taking place right now and I think it's a stressful time of year but also a hopeful time when we all realize this chapter of our lives is coming to a close. A problem that my friend made me realize is do I want to take any of these classes? Do I think I can learn something or am I just trying to load up on hard classes to boost my GPA and help me get into a good college? Honestly it is the latter for me and I think a lot of other students. We're told what we're supposed to do, and guided along the way, but I really don't know what the right choice is. Isn't it almost luck? With millions of students applying to colleges can the advice be the same for every one of us? There are students with grades far above 4.0s and huge ambitions so how do I know what or what not to do. If I swamp my years of high school trying to work for a colleges approval will not taking that third year of Spanish count me out with a 4.5 or 4.8 GPA? I don't know is the answer to what are you taking next year, I am still trying to save my hopes I had for this year and it's difficult. I don't know what I've learned, I don't know what I'm going to learn but I know that whatever I do I'm going to work hard and make the best of it.
