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?

im also a freshman in college and in my opinion College is Waaaaayyy more easier than High school.. my average GPA. in H.S. was around 3.2 , my GPA so far is around 3.6-3.7

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

.. mm i dont know what you mean what kind of classes i guess they differ by state and what ever.. (dont know where you live..)

this semester im taking..

trig. english 103, physics 9, and Architectural drawing I..

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

Is it because you arrive in the special bus? --_____________________________________-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

i agree with Cad.. since classes only meet twice a week i have more than enough time to complete the h.w., projects, etc. .. i sucked badly in H.S. .. college not so much..




btw.. my mistake its physics 11 im taking.. not physics 9

@ Mario: Dang, how did you know that? Takes one to know one.

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.

Yeah I only go 3 times a week and im taking 4 classes, but in my case, I dont have time for hw
