Prepare to show progress perhaps from class- High School students need to set goals and establish work habits good courses: Patricia F. Goldsmith By Late summer is the time for Utahs high school students to resolve to do their best in- the upcoming school year by setting goals and establishing good habits. For juniors, the upcoming year is the most important so far for college admission and scholarships. If one school year needs to be outstanding, this is it. Heres the good news: If youve got a shaky record, a stellar junior year can turn things around. If you were a flake or just didnt understand what was expected early on in high school, you can still shine if you get both feet on the ground now. Often, college admissions counselors are merciful about erratic freshman or sophomore records if a student has clearly caught fire academically as a junior. Colleges expect juniors to make big leaps in intellectual development. Youve grown in social sophistication and youll demonstrate greater capacity for analytical thought as well. For seniors too, the upcoming year is a time to show youre ready to handle college-levwork. To help determine if youll succeed as a college freshman, admissions counselors scrutinize how well you do during the first quarter or trimester of your senior year. Ive noticed a tendency for high school students to spread themselves thin by taking many courses rather than concentrating on substantive ones. Compared to high school, college usually involves fewer but more difficult classes. Seeking predictors of future success, college admissions counselors look for - STATE CHAMPS7he Juab Minor League from, left, front row: Aaron Sperry, Mike Worwood, Jade Kendall, Jeremy Blackett, Jeremy Elder, Russell Jackson, and Travis Park.

All-Star- s, Minor league team wins state tournament in Richfield play The Juab Minor League traveled to Richfield last week to play in the Southern Utah Babe Ruth State Tournament.

Jade Kendall All-Sta- rs In the first game against Wellington, the Juab fell behind in the third inning 1 and never recovered. It seemed All-Sta- rs 6-- like everything the Juab hit were right at the defense. Players receiving hits were Riley Park, Devin Jones, and All-Sta- rs Keld Sperry. In the second game against Emery South, the Juab fell behind 0 in the third in- ning, but came back in the fourth inning to score 11 runs to end the game. Winning pitchers were English, a school core foreign language, history, mathematics and science. Beginning in 1995, for example, Utahs four-yepublic universities will require entering freshmen to have taken at least three years of high ar school science. I know of one otherwise well-qualifi- ed young woman whose application was rejected by a prestigious liberal arts college because she dropped both math and science during her senior year. Define achieved your goals by testing yourself in increasingly tougher tournaments, for example. The last two years of high school are a time of narrowing options. Showing depth is now more important than breadth. You need good time management skills to accomplish goals.
