Last year, I was totally overwhelmed by all the steps involved in the college application process. I remember panicking in September, thinking I was already behind. What really helped me was sitting down and creating a clear timeline. I marked down crucial dates like early decision deadlines, regular application dates, and the days I needed to send out my recommendation requests.
Having a visual schedule made me feel less stressed and more in control. I’d recommend starting with your list of schools and working backward from their deadlines. Trust me, it’ll make your senior year a lot smoother!
