My high school results will be revealed in just 9 days! I live in a highly competitive area where the application process is quite intense, and I anticipate a lot of drama since many students will be disappointed if they don’t get into their desired school. I’ve already secured a spot at a reputable Catholic high school with a good scholarship, but I’m torn about whether to wait for my top choice (which has only a 6% acceptance rate). It’s definitely a stressful situation, so I could really use some advice. Thanks!
On the bright side, in a few months, I’ll actually be a high school student!
It sounds like you’re in a pretty intense situation, and it’s completely understandable to feel stressed about the upcoming results. First, congratulations on getting into a good Catholic high school with a scholarship! That’s definitely an accomplishment to be proud of.
When it comes to waiting for the results from your top school, it might be helpful to think about what you want most in your high school experience. If your top choice is truly your dream school and you believe it aligns better with your goals, it might be worth the wait. But if you feel confident and excited about the opportunity at the school you’ve already been accepted to, that’s a great option too!
Remember that many students face similar pressures and emotions during this time, so you’re not alone. Whatever happens, try to focus on the positives: you have a solid option already, and you’ll be starting this exciting new chapter soon! No matter which school you end up at, your high school experience will be shaped by your attitude and your efforts. Good luck, and just know that everything will work out!
