IS COLLEGE HARD??? HELP Im Scared ??

Answer 1

i heard if you study hard, its a SNAP!

Answer 2

It can be if you don't keep up with the work. Just make sure to attend your classes and make times to study. If you're not sure about things, ask. You'll realize that a lot of your time will be used for studying compared to what you did in high school. You'll do good though. Don't stress out about it too much. There are so many others that are new to this too. Find study groups and tutors to help you.

Side note: College can be amazing if you put effort into too. Not only should you focus on your books, but get involved with your school. Go to the games, join a club, participate in community service. You'll learn more besides what you learn from the books and you can add a lot to the resume. Future employers look at students who do more than just turn in their homework. They like to know that their future employee gets involved and can be committed. And it's a great way to meet people and network.

GOOD LUCK!

Answer 3

I'm 25 years old and my sister is 23. We both went to college with some financial help from our parents. We both had very diffirent experiences with college. I dropped out after 2 years of failing half my classes (the ones I wasnt interested in) and getting mostly As in the rest. My sister got a bachelor's degree in about 3 1/2 years and did EXTREMELY well grade-wise. I'll list some diffirences in our experiences that I hope will help you see why we both did so diffirently.

- Sis knew what she wanted to do with her life (teach) when she got into college and was very passionate about it, I had a few ideas of what I wanted to do but wasn't really sure.

- Sis got married before she started school, I was single throughout school and if anything was rather distracted by dating prospects. My sister's husband was extremely supportive of her and helped her keep focused.

- I lived on campus and was distracted by various things there. Sis lived at home with her husband.

My own feelings about college are that if you are interested in a class and/or it covers material you are passionate about, it won't be that hard as long as you keep up with the work and studying. Classes that you aren't interested in can be a real challenge, especially if the teacher isn't good, but if you are dedicated to getting your degree it should help keep you motivated!

Just keep this one thing in mind- college is MUCH more challenging than High School in general and requires much more work and focus. Be prepared to work hard and minimize distractions if you don't want to fail classes like I did!

Answer 4

Cellege is challenging but if you take it seriously and do all your reading and studying like you should and avoid the party temptations, you will be fine. Let me tell you that about 70% of college is a game. Let me explain. You go to class and feel out the professor. Some want you to see it their way and only their way while others (the good ones) want you to see it from a different angle and find it healthy to disagree. You just need to figure out who wants what and give the appropriate answers. Also, most of my professors really stressed class participation. So, even if you have no idea what the correct answer is, raise your hand and give an answer...any answer. That counts as participation whether you are wrong or right. Good luck!

Answer 5

No college isn't hard but all the guy's are(LOL). No really it's rather easy, as long as you don't overload yourself with lot's of classes. For every 1 hour in class you need to spend 3-4 hours studying. Good Luck, don't be afraid, it will be an experience you'll never forget.

Don't get into partying very much or you will fail.

Answer 6

It does tend to be a lot more work to do in college. I think what makes college more difficult is that a person may take several classes that have heavy work loads. Often, in larger classes, you aren't able to get individual attention from the professor and most professors don't care how much work you have in other classes. There are ways to remedy the situation.

1) Budget your time. Do your homework when you get it, not right before it's due and make time for non-curricular actvities.

2) Ask for clarification. In class, if you don't understand, most professors will be willing to clarify before moving on. If you don't get it, there are likely many other students who don't either.

3) Visit your professors and instructors. Go see them in office hours and get to know them better. They like it when they get visitors. It also helps when you may need recommendations for internships, scholarships or careers.

4) Get help. If you find yourself falling behind, do not be afraid to ask your instructors, professor, teaching assistants or tutors to help you.

College is difficult, but many resources are given to you to succeed. Good luck.

Answer 7

As terrible as it is, you just have to jump through the hoops, even if it doesn't seem to make any sense. Remember that your ultimate goal is that certain piece of paper. Doing well in a certain class, impressing a certain prof, satisfying your parents, doing meaningful things... all those are bonuses, but the ultimate goal is to get out of there with that document. Find out what the prof wants to hear, and tell him exactly that. Don't try to be smart on the exams, you can be smart afterwards, at your new dream job.

Answer 8

Depends on the college and the classes.
THere are a lot of dumb a s ses in college now passing classes.
50 years ago only top students went off to college, now every moron is in some college somewhere.
You'll do fine if you show up to class and pass finals.

Answer 9

Some of the dumbest people come out of college. If you can drink, play sports and party, and if you either have rich parents or don't mind going in debt for a few decades, you'll do fine.

Answer 10

Kind of, because your in a new place and you don't know what to expect, just try and keep your mind on your work, don't try so hard to be excepted, I did that and end up getting kicked out for not making the grades. Try as hard as you can and all will work out.

Answer 11

Sure, it's hard. It's college, not freaking pre-K. But if you got A's in high school, you'll do well in college. So study up.
