<p>I’m going into my senior year in a couple of weeks and am going to start applying to colleges.</p>
<p>Are there any last minute things I can do to improve my chances at being accepted?</p>
<p>Thanks!</p>
<p>Last minute things? Take a rigorous courseload and crank great grades. If you’re still to take ACT/SAT, prep for that as much as reasonable. And have a frank talk with your guidance counselor and ask what other students with your credentials have done. Also talk with your parents and find out what parameters they are willing to go as far as finances.</p>
<p>Good luck to you.</p>
