graduate valedictorian

Hey i have almost finished my high school year and i am not too proud of my grades made like straight B’s in all honors and AP. In my high school there are almost 6000+ people which is a crap load of competition. everyday i sit next to the girl who made ranking of 2 to the freshman and always dream how much releif i would have off my shoulders if i was in her possision. In my family almost alot of my cousins have been Valedictorian and its always been my dream. I always wonder if i can still make it and wut r some tips from people that have succeeded. I mean I will truley appreciate it!
How do you do it?
P.S. I dont want to mess up anymore i want to pay back my parents for everything they’ve given me

4.0 GPA from Kindergarden through 12th grade.

it’s a little too late to be valedictorian ofmy high school class but i can be valedictorian of my college undergrad class. so i hope i do it

first in my high school, out of 150 students. the thing is, i live in spain, so there really isn’t a valedictorian, so i didn’t really get anything. it was kind of cool though. anyway, what i want to do now is graduate first in college, people say it’ll be hard, but i don’t think it’ll be any harder than high school… and that didn’t take much effort either.

Graduating top of your class always makes you look smart! lol. I really didn’t consider myself one of the smartest people in my school, but if the shoe fits! Colleges love it and it’s something you can be proud of for the rest of your life! The hardest part for me was the speech, but I survived it and I wouldn’t go back and change it for anything.

It’ll be huge if I actually become valedictorian of my high school (‘07). I only started caring about grades last year. I only started taking AP classes this year. My GPA is only 88 for now, but my goals are way up there. I feel discouraged too many times though.

this is worth it, but then it sets a standard of expectations for your work. That’s always dangerous. =)
