You've finally made it to senior year!
It's going to go by quickly, so try to stop and enjoy it along the way. Within the first few months of your senior year, you'll decide where to apply, what scholarships to apply for, and who you'll ask to write your letters of recommendation. You'll also begin to complete your applications, write your essays, and possibly retake the ACT, SAT, or SAT Subject Tests. All the while, you'll need to make sure to get great grades on your senior year classes and take on positions of responsibility and leadership in your extracurricular activities.
We've outlined a rough guide of what you should be doing and when you should be doing it, but keep in mind that some of these tasks will vary, depending on your schedule and the schools to which you choose to apply. There are more than 4,000 colleges and trade schools out there—which means a lot of variation.
