with all due respect, i think you could have perhaps added one more category...entitled: "The entire system".

i don't want to change anything about myself. my abilities and character are what they are. i just wish i could have lived my high school years to the fullest, instead of living for what i thought the colleges wanted me to achieve. my generation has evolved into nothing more than a bunch of "college admissions pleasers."

i think A.P. classes should be wiped off the face of the earth. i think more colleges should be built to accomodate how many students are applying. i think they should completely re-vamp admissions standards. how about a lottery system? colleges should have all kinds of us students, with a range of abilities. i mean, that's the way the world is. you don't get hired in a company that just has brainiacs. there should be no more homework on the weekends, holildays, and summers. way too much pressure.
