Obviously, college is a big deal. It will shape your future career, your friends, and where you’ll live for four to eight years.

AP classes are often simplified in terms of pros and cons: on the down side, they’re time-consuming and difficult, but on the up side, you can earn college credit if you pass the AP test. However, when deciding whether or not you will accept the challenge of one or more AP classes, there are also less obvious advantages and disadvantages to consider.

Not everyone has to be a bona fide tree hugger like me (I take military-style showers and routinely unplug every appliance in the house); there are a few simple things you can do in and out of school that will not only help the environment, but may also boost your grades!

1. Take the bus, walk, or carpool.
2. If you use study tools like flashcards or Sparknotes, make or print out one set to share with several people.

Some people say that high school is a time to become more independent and to become who you really are, but I don’t believe them. I think that happens after high school, in college or in the real world. High school is a time to try everything once, to admit to yourself that you have no idea who you are and then take risks and try new things so that by the time you graduate, you can become the person you want to be.
