I read an article earlier at school today, telling me 8th grade was a good time to prepare for college. Since I am in 8th grade, I was wondering if I can get some ideas of courses to take in high school to prepare me for college.
Experience: Taking part in the International Baccalaureate Middle Years Program at my school, plan to take it and the International Baccalaureate Diploma Program in my Sophomore year until college.
I live in the Southern California area. Thanks for advice if given, I am very mature about my education.

Learn Spanish. White people are expected to be only half the population by 2050, while Hispanics (And Asians, to a point) skyrocket. Spanish will become a helpful tool |

| That really depends on what career field you intend on going into. Some states' education systems require a student to have a certain amount of courses (Ex. Louisiana, Core 4). |

TAKE ALL THE POINTLESS CLASSES AND SEE WHERE IT GOES

I was looking into chinese, but I took spanish because my area has many in them, including half of my family, (I'm half white, half mexican, really complicated) so I just took the course.

I'm taking integrated math 1, which I was told by my teacher that I was taking a 9th grade math class.
Anyway, my interests currently are meteorology, or engineering.

Get your language requirements done the first couple of years, then your senior/junior year have fun electives.
Got R+ ? If so play some music while on this thread http://www.roblox.com/15-item?id=162694151 |

A couple high school girls came to my science class and gave my class a lecture on high school. I am planning on taking AP English at some point, because I read an article on college student interviews, and most of them recommended AP English as an important course, with all these research papers.

I say take all the AP classes when you have the opportunity, if you feel like it's too overwhelming then change back to acel or normal clases when you have class changes. AP classes give extra points for a GPA

Sounds excellent, thanks for the advice everyone! I will look back at this probably when I enter my freshmen year. (Might quit roblox in my junior year)

In my junior or senior year, I might also get into chemistry, which is probably another career option I might look into. I know chemistry is not really a career, I'm talking about the skill.
