Don’t focus as much on academics. Focus more on discovering who you are, who you want to be. Where you go for university doesn’t matter as much as what you do outside of academics.

High school self? I would definitely tell him not to be afraid of the future, ’cause it’s a scary thing. I would tell him, "it really doesn’t matter what you do, just do something." If you make a mistake, it’s okay. You’ll figure it out.

Throughout my high school time, I would keep switching from sports, to drama, to as many things to put stuff on my CV. I never really specialized in anything. But I realized that it’s okay to be broad in my spectrums because it lets me talk to people about different topics. It comes in really well when you’re socially networking. But I would tell my high school self to at least specialize in one thing.
