Q: This question is for people who have either been through college, enrolled in college, or are very experienced with it.
Is it better to have mediocre grades and all honors classes or good grades (A's and B's) with mostly standard classes (and one honors class)?
I'm asking this because I'm a high school freshman hoping go to Stanford to major in psychology, and I wanted to know which looks better. Thank you so much!

most colleges [from what i've read] look for devoted students. one's who really try in school and push themselves in what they do. the honors classes are obviously a plus to colleges. if you could take atleast 3 honors classes that'd be great. honors classes aren't very hard either, it's just at a faster pace, and sometimes you have more work. just set your mind to it. oh, another thing colleges like is extra-curricular activities. not too many though, they aren't usually attracted to over-achievers as it had been proven that they are stretched out too much in all different areas and also can become depressed at times. colleges like well- rounded people. you dont have to be best. wow, sorry. i was rambling a bit there. but, i hope you get the drift! lol. if you need help, here's an AMAZING website for colleges and help in the college process, it can also help you in your scholarship forms too. :
