Advice from a former valedictorian:


Get your drivers license as early as possible.
Figure out classes you can slack in and still pull the grades, and slack away.
Best grade possible for least amount of work - figure this equation out and you’re golden.
Go out on weekends, don’t commit yourself to a demanding weekend extracurricular…have some fun.
Get completely, totally, and obscenely trashed at least a handful of times during your junior/senior years…go to a few parties!
Live for the moment, don’t devote yourself to trying to acheive a future people here on CC say is ideal. Things change, plans fall through, etc, why not enjoy the here and now. The grades will come and you’ll be fine, but dont’ kill yourself or close yourself off just to get into Harvard.
HAVE FUN!!!
