Insights
One thing I wished I knew about college is that mental health is very important. If you are struggling then you should reach out to get help as soon as possible because it can affect your grades and friendships. Many professors in college are very understanding but you always have to communicate with them. Another small thing I wish I knew while still in high school is to get comfortable with talking with peers and adults.

Other Advice/Information
As a student from the health pathway, I believe all students should take one business class. Although they might not want further pursue a career or degree in business, it is a necessity. You can take skills from Mr. Wakabayashi's business class that you can use later in life and not only in college.
