• Craft your SAT/ACT testing strategy to maximize your competitiveness (and for sophomores, determine whether you should prepare this summer for the PSAT to potentially qualify for National Merit recognition and scholarships)
  
  
• Develop your college list, which drives all of your academic, testing, and application priorities
  
  
• Maximize your GPA and select coursework strategically
  
  
• Manage extracurriculars to discover and develop your interests
  
  
• For juniors, begin planning college applications and essays
