There are many reasons why a lot of people decide to not attend college. But in my case, I decided to start fresh out of high school. I did so because after graduating, I was used to being in school and had many skills fresh in my mind. One reason why students do not start in college right away is having lack of motivation. Motivation comes from seeing other succeed. My motivation happens to be my family and wanting to make them proud. I believe that because I am the oldest sibling, i have to set an example to the youngest ones. I know that if I slack off, my siblings may follow the same path. It might get hard. But believing in myself and putting effort into my classes wont let me fail.
Another reason is feeling overwhelmed for getting low scores on their placement test. This determines what classes the student should be place in. Some students, if they receive low scores on the test, decide to not even start school year or keep pushing back the day they will start. My scores were low for English, and math was my highest. So i was placed in English 42&43 and in Math 46. These classes are one of the lowest, but it did not make me want to give up. This encouraged me to keep moving forward in my studies and more in life. I knew that if I want a bright future, I must start form the beginning. I believe that starting soon is more successful than waiting until it's too late. I am on my way!
