What would you like to tell current Bryan Collegiate students?
(1) ENJOY YOUR TIME AT BCHS. Take advantage of every opportunity they give you- clubs, volunteer hours, tutoring, anything! Take it and learn from everything that you do! I promise it all will help you in the future, even if you don’t realize it. (2) Take those “easy” classes serious!!!!! That A in an “easy” class weighs the same amount on your GPA as making an A in a harder class. So don’t let up just because it’s easy! It can really save you when things get tough. (3) If BCHS hasn’t taught you already, get a daily hourly planner. Plan out your days by the hour, your study times, workout times, time with friends, whatever it may be!
