Hello,
I am from Germany and wrote an English Test last week.
There was a question I can not find the right answer.
Maybe anyone of you can help me.
The question was:
A college-bound student is...
a. a student not allowed to leave the campus
b. a student planning to take up studies
c. a student at a privat high school
Do you know the correct answer?
Perhaps you can explain me your answer. It needn't be long.
Many thanks for helping.
What means "a college-bound student"

This is actually wrong. It might seem like the most obvious answer, however b.) is correct.Delfino hat geschrieben:A college-bound student is ...
a.) a student not allowed to leave the campus.
b.) a student planning to take up studies.
A 'college-bound' student is not using the past tense of the verb 'bind' but rather this definition:
bound: a leap onward or upward; jump.
Someone who is 'leaping onward' to college.
I hope that my explanation was clear enough. Mein Deutsch ist nicht so gut!

Thank you for taking the time to correct my mistake.
And don't worry, an English explanation is fine too!
Well, German is my mother tongue.Mein Deutsch ist nicht so gut!
