If this sentence is not correct, then how should this sentence be re-written while staying in one sentence?

"To me, the internet search serves only as a plaything-and should generally only be used to descry the supplemental or auxilary, or for the pursuit of irrelevant but entertaining, tangent information."
(Wikipedia is a prime example of this.)

I'm going on a volunteering program this summer away from home (I am a high school student) and I am curious to what I will gain from my expericne. I do not know exactly what to expect.

I know I will learn the basics - teamwork, passion, manual work, and meeting people - but is there anything really special and different that I will learn?

I am currently taking a one credit hour Physical Education class that is getting in the way of my work and class schedule. I am also transferring to a better school but i am afraid that if I drop this class it will negativly affect how the college will look at me. Do you think dropping the class will have a negative affect on my transcript? Should i drop it or just suck it up?

Most students fear tests, therefore when it comes to taking the ACT most will fail, or get a lower grade than others. Students ability should not be based on the test itself, but on the motivation that the student has in attending a college. For example; I myself hope to go to NMSU, but when I took the ACT I got a 18, when the requirement is to pass with a 21 or higher, so what if I am willing to do good in my college classes and those students who have passed the ACT and have been given the opportunity to go there do not take advantage of the courses like I would.
