Prepared by the high schools, colleges, and universities of Southeast Florida, this booklet offers information and practical advice to high school students on selecting courses and programs that will promote later success in college and on the job. Part 1 presents suggestions for planning a high school career, focusing on the academic skills needed for college and for a job, attitudes and actions that will open future opportunities, and good study and work habits. This section also includes a note to parents recommending ways in which they can help their children become successful.
