It's ok. I'm a freshy and it's not as bad as some people say.\nP.E is still P.E you still do the same stuff.\nClasses are much more challenging. But if you work hard you still pass. But just not as easy.

It depends on how much work you put into it. Public school can, in fact, be really hard if you take Advanced Placement Classes, but it's worth it if you're up for a challenge. As for the rumors about the way freshmen are treated badly, those are pretty much false. Get involved. Join clubs to meet new people, go out for a sports team, or join the band. That way you'll meet kids with interests similar to yours, and you'll make friends quickly. The more you get involved, the more fun you'll have. High school can be a blast if you put effort into it!

College is very cool! The people tend to be a lot more mature than high school and not so judgmental and narrow-minded. The same kids that were snotty and snobby in high school when I went to college were nice as could be to me! Don't ask my why because I'm not sure! \n\nAlso, in high school since I was planning on college my classes were very structured and I didn't have any choices at all in what I wanted to take so that I could fit in all the required college prep courses, but in college I had a lot more choices in what I wanted to take, esp. of course in the last 2 years when you choose your major. But even in the first 2 years you can choose what you will take to some extent, say a poetry class vs.a Victorian Lit class or a Women's History class vs. a European History class or Astronomy vs. Anthropology or Biology...\n\nI did have some very, very close friends (like sisters) in high school, and I think it is a little harder to get those kind of close friendships in college. I made one really close friend in college which we are still very close friends. I've heard you can get those kind of friendships in sororities or fraternities, although I did not join one, they can be very time-consuming, and I always had a part-time job unfortunately.

Pros:  \nYou get much more freedom than middle school.\nYou have a lot more friends to choose from.\nYou have a lot more activities to choose from.\nYou'll get to pick some of your classes.\nKids aren't as mean as they are in middle school.\n\nCons:\nYou won't realize that high school is just a very small, itty-bitty, teeny weeny part of your life until long after you've graduated.  So everything that happens to you will seem like the biggest deal in the world.  (But I guess everything in life is like this!)

When I was in high school there wasnt any time between changing after P.E. class and trying to get to your next one. You just jumped outta your workout clothes and into your school clothes and tried to do it in time for the next class.\nAlso, the showers in my high school had metal partitions around them making a circle so the girls on one side couldn't see each other unless you were at the front. Don't be self-conscious. Remember that every girl in that class with you is just as self-conscious as you are. Some conceal it better than others.Everyone feels the same awkwardness in high school. I remember feeling so confused and lost and thinking I was the only one. But please remember that you are not alone. Even the most popular girl in school feels ugly sometimes. I promise!You'll do fine. Right before the first day of school, you will have freshman orientation and you can tour every class and building and they will explain to you every procedure there will be in every class. If you do have to take showers, they will tell you then.But I highly doubt you will have to. If you do have to take showers, I promise everyone is going to be concentrating on how they look and making sure no one looks at them to bother judging you. High school is a blast! Enjoy it don't be afraid.

High School take all the after school tutoring they offer, talk to your teachers, your counselors, you might graduate a year later, but it will be worth it. \n\nFrom what I have seen, the GED is actually harder than H.S. alone, I feel only the truly driven obtain their GED's to further there education. It is not a small feat in any respect.

High school is very little work for many with intelligence.\n\nMy sincere suggestion is that if high school really is challenging for you, then you really need to study to prepare to be an adult!  Even if you work at McDonald's for the rest of your life, you still need a few basics...

High school was not great for me . I was raised to never stand up for my self so it was rough. I was picked on alot. I didn't fit in. I had some friends but they turned out not to really be my friends but just using me. My mom kicked me out just after I turned 17 so I had to quit school and live in my car and work full time but next year I went back to school took night school and regular school and made up all of my credits. No dances, no real fun but I wouldn't change anything because it has made me a better person today.

High school for me was a very memorable one. I just enjoy it. I don't study that "hard", but I study to have good grades. It's not a problem if you will have a boyfriend of not.  The thing is, you study so you will learn.  Having a boyfriend is part of growing up. It's just a matter of how you handle things especially your time.  \nJust remember, if you'll have a boyfriend soon, you must have the ability to handle things in balance. If you are reading your notes, have ur focus on it. After, then you can think of something else, boyfriend for forbriend, and friends. "You can't hit one bird with your gun if your looking in the other bird beside it"\nIf you will be able to handle it, then, you'll gonna make it to the end. God Bless.

High school trains you to "play the game"--speaking in terms of traversing the educational system.  High school measures your ability to do work, accept responsibility, and engage in positive social interactions.  It is training for both future educational pursuits as well as future relationships and employment.  Be cool...stay in school.
