only2moreyears...
until we have to make that decision that could forever change our lives. I went on a college tour today of 2 completely different universities. They were not only different in appearance wise, but also in atmosphere, courses offered, and transportation wise. The two universities I got a chance to learn more about today were the prestigious Stanford University and the well known California State University of the East Bay. I literally fell in LOVE with Stanford today. Don't get me wrong or anything, CSUEB is not a college I would not be interested in, but it's more like I'd like to set myself a really big goal and hopefully one day reach that goal. Today made me realize that making it into a prestigious university such as Stanford would require a BIG deal of commitment and lots and lots of hard work. Only 1 out of 10 applicants are chosen to attend this school so I only have a 10% chance of getting into this place, IF I manage to keep my current grades for the next TWO years.

I agree with you both of the college environments were completely different. And it also made me realize how hard I need to work to get in. Ahh! Pressure!

Yes, I agree with you as well. I literally fell in love with Stanford's campus and walking through the campus made me realize how much I want to go there. It's a lot of hard work but one way or another, we will find a way.
