- What courses are available
- Whether or not you are eligible for the classes that you want to take
- How to enroll in them for your junior year

|
| Update Your File |
|
| Update your file, or start one if you haven't already. (See Grade 9 for a list of what it should contain.) |
|
| Extracurricular Activities |
|
| Continue extracurricular activities, as admissions officers look at students' extracurricular activities when considering them for admission. |
|
| Academic Enrichment |
|
| Continue participation in academic enrichment programs, summer workshops, and camps with specialty focuses such as music, arts, science, etc. |
|
| P SAT Exam |
|
| Take the P SAT in October. The scores will not count for National Merit Scholar consideration in your sophomore year, but it is valuable practice for when you take the P SAT again in your junior year (when the scores will count), as well as for the SAT I exam which you should also be taking in your junior year. You will receive your P SAT results in December. |
|
| SAT II |
|
- Register for the SAT II in April for any subjects you will be completing before June.
- Take the SAT II in June.
