welcome!)? i'm currently a senior in high school and i feel like my life is done! i have no direction in life. my college search is going nowhere, i've only applied to one school (my first choice/reach school), which is super expensive and i have no chance of getting in or pay for it. i don't know what major i'm going into, i don't know what career i want to do. all my friends are either done with their college apps, or not worrying about it at all.
my academic is ok. i have a 4.0 right now (sat: 1540, act: 24). it's not good enough to get me into good schools, but i think it's better than schools that no one's heard of like Wooster, Thiel, Washington and Jefferson (which, unfortunately, are the only types of schools that want me to apply!)
i recently found another school that i really like (syracuse) but the deadline for application is already passed, and i have no chance of getting in anyway (cost+academic=fail!)
when i was younger i honestly thought that my life is set and i'm gonna be able to pull all of this off easily, but now i'm utterly confused and hopeless... how can other seniors do this so easily? do they not care about their higher education? do they not care about their future at all?
sorry, this question is basically a sad attempt for me to rant on my life.
