    Also, a work ethic if you want to make college a more worthwhile experience than the socializing.

    Set up your computer with everything you need.

    I downloaded all the programs my college had available for any of the schools, and for all engineering majors. Then I created accounts on certain websites to manage projects, backup files, keep a calendar for classes and schoolwork, and keep track of financial stuff.

    Then I did research on where to go to have fun around college, and learned the college campus.

    I won't be buying a lot of the physical stuff until I am actually there, since I don't want to have to carry it all with me when I drive down in September.

    Ok here's what you gotta do to prepare the best for the College. First, start by getting up at 4 : 30 am every morning, make sure to have a sweat shirt with a hoodie. Then you get up and stretch out, of course butt naked. You then admire yourself in front of a mirror and flex, this is very important for self confidence. After that, get dressed take 10 eggs, break them into a glass and drink. Start running outside, doing push ups and of course never let any enemy approach anywhere near you it is important to act fast if that occurs. Rinse and repeat this for 4 months and you will be well prepared.

    What a backwards country you lot live in.
    Most High Schools in the U.S. let kids pick their teachers for Junior and Senior years, but they may or may not have a set course load for their Freshman and Sophomore years. I don't know for sure, I was home schooled through High School, but that's the feeling I got from all my High Schoolio amigos. (starting college this year.)
