Preparing for College

Mr. Bradshaw gives some advice to a high school senior on what he can do this summer to prepare for college next year.  Who would've thought that upgrading your email address would be on the checklist?

This also is the time to upgrade your e-mail address. Names like "hotbabe" or "Ihatetests" are not going to impress colleges. Use your real name or at least part of your real name in your e-mail address. It looks more mature and makes it is easier for admissions committees to search for your e-mails. If your name is taken, add a few numbers after it. Believe me, it really helps when they sort through all the e-mails you send. These are points easily scored in your favor.
