what is the worst AND the best thing about your college life?
818697
Best: my friends, freedom, the ability to take really cool classes, being able to drink, not having to wake up at 7 am/having a flexible schedule, being surrounded by people who are passionate\n\nWorst: ...nothing, really. I mean, I can't complain about the work because it's making me a better person. Maybe I can say that the food isn't all that great...

I loved my first week of college. Work load really depends on how many classes you are taking. 12 hours isn't too bad. Good luck and hope you enjoy your college life. It goes by SOOO fast. I'm a junior right now and feel like my life has just flown by!

It really depends on which college you go to. I go to Boston University and am overloading, so I don't have much time for partying. You also need to look at the cost of living in your college town because you might be forced to get a job just to pay to wash your clothes! You should definitely check out the entertainment scenes in your college town to make sure they do have one! There are surprisingly a lot of people at my school who don't know how to do their own laundry, write checks etc which actually shocked me. Otherwise, most time is spent studying, sleeping, eating foods you shouldn't, and hanging out with friends until wee hours of the morning because there is no adult to tell you otherwise. Also, make sure one of the first things you do is get a school planner, so you don't freak out trying to remember everything you have to do!

+Gossip\n+Staying on top of things, trying not to slack off [Procrastination & falling behind suck a lot. Your grades go WAY down.]\n+Trying to please your friends\n+DRAMA, DRAMA, DRAMA. Especially the girl talk. [Someone just ALWAYS feels like starting something.]\n+Social cliques [Annoying. Why can't people accept everyone?]\n+Zits -___- [They just suck.]\n+Balancing school, family life, friends, and other activities [With singing lessons, youth group band, tennis, softball, and Korean classes, it's hard.]\n+Guys [Boys are stupid. A crush on a guy can either make or break you, depending on how he feels. True Love Waits<3]\n\nThe great thing is that I only have two weeks of middle school left until high school. A new start. Hopefully, I'll not make the same mistakes I have before.

My first semester of college I nearly went insane. I was sick all the time, I was scared to meet new people, and it seemed like everyone else was a genius compared to me. My chemistry class is was kept me sane. \n\nIt helped that it was smaller (60-70 people.) It was still twice the size of my high school classes, but less than half the size of a normal lecture at my college. The professor was GREAT. He was the first professor to learn my name, or even seem to care that I, as an individual, understood the material. AT the time, it was a big deal. He was also a great teacher in general. He liked to do demonstrations and involve the students in them. \n\nMost importantly, for whatever reason, I ended up becoming friends with a lot of people in that class. Nerds are drawn to one another, perhaps? I'm not sure what I would have done without it.

1) I don't like sharing 300 square feet of space with 3 other people.\n\n2) Why should I pay to do that when I can pay the same amount and have my own rented apartment?\n\n3) No parking for dormers.\n\n4) I work.\n\n5) Where do you live when the school year is on summer break (assuming you don't have parents)?\n\n6) Nothing to do on-campus (that interests me at least).\n\n7) Living on your own is best for people with more independent personalities.\n\n8) Paying rent on time builds your credit worthiness.\n\n9) You meet more diverse people off-campus than on-campus.

College is 100x better.\nEveryone that's there wants to be there.  In high school there were always those people that didn't have a purpose and went because they had to.\nYou don't have class all day.  You pick your own schedule.  If you are not a morning person then don't get morning classes.  \nEveryone around you is a "poor college" student.  At least to me there didnt seem to be a competition as to who has the most trendy clothes. You wore what you had and didnt feel as self conscious.\nYou don't have to go to class and dont have to worry about ditching school and being caught (of course if you dont go to class your grade will suffer but no one is forcing you to be there)\nParties, enough said

i loved my freshman year of college...i have never laughed more, or cried in my entire life. I lived on Campus and that was DEFINITELY a new experience for me because I was in a CO-ED dorm, on the same floor with football players and baseball players, and gymnasts (don't know why i was put on this floor but it was FUN) ...freshman year is that time in your life were you finally realize...YOU ARE GROWN..YOU ARE NOW RESPONSIBLE FOR MAKING YOUR OWN DECISIONS AND HANDLING THE CONSEQUENCES THAT COME WITH THOSE DECISIONS.....\n\nI learned that racism still exists, I learned about towns in my own state that I had never even heard of!, I learned how to tolerate all sorts of peoples attitude and how to ignore them, i mean its such a wake up call in life.......i wouldn't trade my freshman year for anything....its  all of the above and more.....\n\nIt was the first time in my life I felt free to do what I please......i went to party's, drank, and still made the deans list...so it all depends on how you handle this new found freedom..... but i don't regret anything ,,,,nothing but good memories to tell my children....

a quiet, underestimated school. I'm a second year and enjoying my time here. Frats dominate the social scene and the school is going through a construction boom. the weather isn't as bad as i though it would be. overall I am satisfied with my decision to come here

It all depends on what your college experience is like and where your life leads afterward.
