Well, I start High School in about 2 weeks!. (Aug. 7th).. It's going to be my first year!.?

Question

Any advice on how I can survive?

Answer 1

Don't sweat it, it's just like every other school grade, your only older and in some cases given more responsibility. Freshman year is the easiest, Senior year can be stressful if you don't do your work. Have fun in school, i start college in 2 weeks so :-/

Answer 2

when i started high school it was no big deal. the movies make it out to big some big change and everything. but it's pretty much like jr high except you have more freedom. and you get picked on for being a freshman. i'm going into my senior year and i've never had trouble, and i'm not even "popular".

Answer 3

just enjoy every moment with it.. =] don't think of the bad stuffs that will happen

Answer 4

Freshmen aka freshmeat, get punked all day in high school. it the most horrible experience ever. Becarefull in the locker room with those bigger guys around u... they like freshmeat!

Answer 5

first, there's no reason to be nervous (if you are, i know i was!). you're going to be fine. tips:

1) always smile- smiling shows you're friendly and you're open to people for conversation. smile at people and teachers.

2) dress to impress- don't change your style for the first day of school or throughout the year. wear something a little nicer for the first day, but that's it.

3) have good posture- don't walk in a room slouched over. sit up straight in your seat and walk standing upright.

4) have confidence- if you get the chance to stand up and talk about yourself the first day in a room, do it right. get up and smile and look people in the eyes, even if you don't know them. it will show you're friendly. you could practice this at home before you start school.

5) smell nice- spray a hint of a nice cologne on yourself before each class. =)

6) act comfortable, even if you're not- this one's hard, but you have to do it. don't go up and talk and keep saying "uh" and such.

7) be kind- if you see someone who is lost or needs help, help them. that's how you make friends.

8) be active in school- me and my locker partner became close because of fbla. i met so many upperclassmen and such being in a club. sports are also really good because you will find people with comon interest.

9) go to orientation- if your school has an orientation, then go. mine did and i know it put my mind at ease that i was able to walk around the school and see where classes and places were before school started.

Answer 6

Study as much as you can. Take least one elective every semester. Lots of luck.
