This mornings results will bring mixed emotions to students, with some students pleased and others possibly disappointed. Regardless of your results take the time to listen to this excellent piece of advice for your future.
The narrative you have just heard is based on an essay by Mary Schmich’s in her column in the Chicago Tribune which headlined “Advice, like youth, probably just wasted on the young.”
