Importance of Scholarships

Scholarship mean a lot to people without any way to get into college. It provides an opportunity to get an education and learn about their future career. Without a scholarship they may not be able to get a job that would be able to support them or their family. A scholarship may mean everything to their family,and it brings a relief of stress to the parents. There are a lot of scholarships out there for all types of people. Getting a scholarship may be like winning the lottery to some families. Especially if it is a full ride scholarship that is great for the parents and brings joy to them. Most student do not get full rides to colleges, but the one that do take advantage of that a get their degrees.

Academically I am where I need to be, but not where I want to be. I want to be in the top 50 % of my class which means I need to work hard to achieve that. I currently studying harder and working to boost my GPA and Class Rank.I want to achieve my goal by the end of my Senior year in 2016.

College degree and Country comparison

I believe a college degree is necessary because with out it you life may not be the same. Social people may think different of you and judge you For example they may think they are on a higher level than you. Which would cause you to be in doubt if you should have friends or anything. So it is worth time of going to school and using your money to pay for it. Economically it is worth it because with a degree you can get better jobs and earn more money. More money can support your family and have ya'll living right. You could be able to pay bills on time and still have a little extra money on the side. So I believe it is necessary to earn a degree and I do not think it's a waste of time.

Well this U.S schooling system is some what similar to Frances schooling. There are also some difference on the way they do things and they have extra things that U.S does not have. In the U.S we have kindergarten,elementary, middle school , and high school. Then of course you choose if you want to go to college. France has Kindergarten, Elementary , Middle School, and High School,but they have a vocational high school for students with jobs. Their college system is different and complex. Very hard to explain the way they go to college but it is different than ours.
