"I am a first-generation American. Both of my parents were born in Mexico and neither made it to college. Instead, they worked long hours in a factory. I decided this was not the life for me. Since elementary school, I knew I was going to college. I stuck by my decision and now am a Marketing Major with a minor in Political Science under the Pre-Law option. My family has been very supportive. They¹re proud of me, and can¹t wait for graduation day. The best thing about being in college is knowing that your future is up to you. You can do what you love if you work hard enough. I'd tell any student considering college to look very thoroughly and make sure to find the school that best fits you. Also, be sure to start things early, such as SAT's and ACT's, so you don¹t fall behind. And the best advice is take as many AP and Dual Credit courses as possible. They¹re really worth it in the end."
