The piece of advice that I would give to a high school freshman about college is:  Be sure to have good grades, but also try to make good habits. Make sure you build all the academic skills you need now so that you don’t have to worry about them when you get to college. Also start thinking about where you want to go to college, because it is not a good feeling to not know where your going to be the next year.

My hero is:   My mother is my hero because she is the one who helped me get where I am today.
