What was your college freshman year like?
 
Im on my freshman year of college right now. From my point of view DROPPING OUT IS NOT AN OPTION, and I am really on my breaking point. I've been going to sleep past 1:00 am and waking up at 5:30-6:00, I work about 30 hours a week and sometimes more and I have more homework than everyone else it seems like to me. I was never used to work hard in HS and still graduated with honors. I thought college was going to be easier than this, so anyway, how was you guys' first year of college?

On average, how much homework do you have? what kind of classes are you taking?

I agree with gsb. I think one of the main reasons is that in college (I think most anyway) classes generally meet only twice a week. College has been waaaay easier than high school for me also. Maybe its the freedom, the ability to just walk out of the classroom for no reason, knowing that your there because you want to be there...

Edit: and usually you are concentrating on only about 4 classes or so full time, as opposed to 6 periods in high school

Yea that's what I meant, some people say oh college is easy but when you ask them their major they're like oh its underwater basket weaving, so wtf no wonder you think is easy but seems like you have pretty tough classes.
