On Tuesday I take the ACT. If you're not aware the ACT is a standardized test taken by high schoolers mainly to be used for college admissions. A big part of one's college acceptance rides on one's ACT score. So basically, I'm freaking out. I've been studying all week. (Yes, I only started this week because I'm a huge procrastinator.) Fortunately Tuesday isn't actually the end all be all, although I envision it as such. One good thing about the test is that you can take it as many times as you desire and colleges only really look at the best score.
Here's the thing. I'm pretty smart, (not trying to be cocky) so I will pass and get good enough scores to get into a decent college. But the problem is I don't just want to get into a "decent" college. I want to get into Columbia University and if not, then I want to do the best I am physically capable of. I want to know I gave it my all. Yes, in summary I should get back to practicing.
