Lauren -- isn't that enough?
You must concentrate on getting A's on all of your tests. If you had any more after school activities, you wouldn't be able to do your main job of learning as much as possible in your academic classes.
My dad really wants me to get busy after school during weekends. I always have time for my school work.
Your goal is to get into the college of your choice. Colleges look at SAT and ACT scores first!
The best way to prepare for these tests is to earn A's on all class tests you take, starting NOW!
Make sure you're spending enough time on your school work to earn A's on all of your tests.
I agree with your dad that you need outside activities. But if you're going to meet your academic goals, you need to spend more time on school work.
I know that they pretty much look at the SAT and ACT first. There is another way of preparing me by buying those SAT and ACT booklets, Kumon (math and reading), and this other program I forgot.
I heard about the US Predantial Scholar Program plus there is another program like that for arts. Plus ... ok read this
