INTELLIGENCE:

Yesterday I received information on the ACT and the ACT prep courses. I'm in the 10th grade! This is for when I am filling out my applications for the college of my choice. I don't know what I want to be yet. Its so strange that we worry about being able to tell colleges good scores. That a number can be so significant. It will tell them everything they need to know about your intelligence. To me that is frustrating. Wouldn't they want to get to know you as a person, not just a number with a name to it. Just think that little number lets them judge you. I'm not saying that I don't think it is important because it is. I wan't to get the best score possible. I will try my best. Its just hard to get motivated to try so hard on something when i don't know what i'm even gonna use it for. I hope I can prove what i need to them. That i'm intelligent enough. But I hope that it not only helps me get into the college i want but it helps me in life. We spend about 17 years of our life learning what we need to be ready for life when it comes. I hope thats enough.
