Students either studied hard and had limited free time, or didn’t study and depended upon pure fate and good luck. When first entering high school, most students studied strenuously to get off to a good start. Like most freshmen, books were carried home by the dozen. Sophomore year, part-time jobs and other activities became part of the daily schedule, and students’ free time was restrict¬ ed to an even greater extent. Even¬ tually, junior year arrived and stu¬ dents received the big warning. “Get your act together for college NOW!” This bit of advice was heard time and time again. Some chose to listen to these sincere words of wisdom, while others ignored them. PSAT’s and ACT’s came into the picture, and students began looking into col¬ lege and career choices. Last, but never least, senior year appeared. Signs of “senioritis” were diagnosed among members of the senior class. Some of the more common symp¬ toms included laziness, lack of inter¬ est in school work, and the down¬ right urge to party! By the end of the year, most seniors hadn’t a care in the world. They felt they deserved freedom from homework after three long tedious years of studying. This was their time to sit back, relax, and enjoy themselves for the remainder of their high school lives. They had finally fulfilled their requirements and applied to schools that they were interested in attending. All that was left to do was wait. So seniors waited for the day that they would become freshmen once again. Soon, they would have to ask themselves that same question one more time. To study or not to study, that is the question.
