MISCELLANEOUS #1: VANDERBILT UNIVERSITY COMING TO NYC!!!
Hey'all,
Pardon the drastically long time intermission without any posts, I was informed by others, of the Vanderbilt Road Show. Essentially, the office of Undergraduate Admissions in Vanderbilt University travels around the U.S., holding a 90 minute presentation of the campus. It just so happens that Vanderbilt University will be stopping in NYC. This is an opportunity to learn more about possible choices of universities you may wish to apply to. You are free to answer questions to the staff who will follow up with responses. No ticket or fee is required. To learn more information of the roadshow visit: http://admissions.vanderbilt.edu/travel/roadshow.php

STUDENT TIPS #1: SCHEDULE
Here is the first of an installment that I wanted to bring to a blog, where tips and advice will be provided for high-school students. Here it is:
Yes, a schedule. Although it is a little cliche, a schedule can make a huge difference in school and even outside. Before you throw away your school planner or that little notebook that you almost never even touched, think twice. A schedule/ planner can help you organize your life. Plan specific volunteer/ program dates with their times, a birthday, event with friends, test, quizzes, periods to study and even homework or projects. I can't tell you enough how useful and helpful it could have been for me or other students in school. Avoid spending 5 hours up at night doing homework, or procrastinating till the last minute. Try it; even just for a week you will see what a great help it is.
