A rigorous course of study
Our graduation requirements are quite rigorous, so by following these, you should be fine for most schools.
Purposeful and thoughtful elective requirements
Is there a passion you are following?
If you are looking at more selective schools OR if you want to demonstrate your ability to be successful in college requirements , they prefer to see electives in the core content areas:
Math, Science, English, Social Studies, and Foreign Language
Colleges also like to see a student pursue her interests i.e. art, music
