Assignment 19: Naylan James

The best advice i have ever been given was given two years too late, by my college planner. Freshman and sophomore year I never put much effort into school and finished 10th grade with a strong 3.23 GPA. Luckily, I decided to get a college planner because I have no clue how any of that works and he told me something that I should've been told in 8th grade, "You really need to try in school." Because at this point, after having a reckless 9th and 10th grade, My GPA is barely able to get over a 3.5. Luckily I was given this advice before the start of 11th grade and have gotten my GPA up to a 3.4 and can probably get it a little higher before I graduate. This is one thing that I will always emphasize if I ever have children, as grades are a lot more important than I ever realized.
