Stop Holding Me Back

High school seniors should be allowed to bypass their senior year to go to college. My article will actually cover all three of the Big Questions. It will address the “What exists?” by me not only voicing my opinion but other current freshman peers. As a recently graduated student I feel that high school was more of a review rather than learning something new. Education is the best thing that you can invest your time into. So that makes time an extremely important factor in life. How would you feel if that time was shorten or taken away from you? Angry, disappointed, annoyed. As members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints we understand the importance of education, that’s why we chose to come to BYU.

Big Question “What is good?”- By allowing this to take action student will retain their ability to taking good notes and good study regime. If you’re not learning anything new than you’re not going to take notes on the matter. For example, you don’t need to note down that the area of a triangle is length X width X height. The same applies in all aspects of life. I going to include other testimonials from current BYU freshman students about their experience with high and school and how they feel their experience were.


Big Question “What should we do?”- It answers this because it’s a policy claim about something that should be done. In this case it's allowing incoming freshman to skip their senior year of high school if they met the qualifications to be college approved. I plan on being persuasive by convincing my audience to self-reflect and see that most of their senior year was just a review of what they learned throughout their high school years and not actually new learning. I plan on helping them see that if they are ready for college by their junior year based upon their academic criteria then they shouldn't be held back from going to college and quickening their path to their aspirations.
