Academic Preparation

Being academically prepared for college is not something that happens overnight. You learned to read when you were young, and have improved your reading level and comprehension throughout your life. You started learning to count on your fingers and now study more advanced math. Reading, math, and all of the other skills you've developed over time play a part in being prepared for college, regardless of what you decide to study when you get there. 

Activate the abilities you already have and achieve your mission. -Ingryd Lorenzana
