I actually wished I would have given a shit during the whole college app process.
Academics were never a priority in my household. My perents were all that "as long as you tried" crap. I never tired. I just did the minimum to get by. My ACT's were great and I didnt even really try. Had I done Kaplan and taken the SAT's, I couldda kicked ass. Had I applied myself, I could have graduated in the top 5% of my class and gone where ever I wanted. Instead, I just went where my sister did because our uncle was on staff there.
Granted, I like my life now, and so many things would have been different so I cant lament what happened.
Off the top of my head, had I done better in HS and gone anywhere, (knowing what I know now) I might have chosen from the following list: Old Miss, Clemson, Stanford, UT, Ohio State, LSU, UNC or Columbia
