Absolutely not!
A metaphore is a comparison which diresctly relates 2 things without using the words like or as.
For example: "War is hell" or "Trees are God's children reaching for the sky"

No, that is not a metaphor. A metaphor is a word or phrse that compares one thing (or more) to another (or more) withut using the words like" or "as."
For instance: "The elephants came stomping down the hall as soon as the bell rang." Here, the noisy students, or fat teachers or whatever, are being compared to elephants.
A similie is something like a metaphor, but it uses "like" or "as"
For instance: "The kids stomping down the hall when the bell rang sounded like a herd of elephants."

I don't know...DOES your mother go to college? If she does, then it is not a metaphor. If college is in reference to something else, then it is a metaphor.

no, a metaphor is a comparison of two unlike things, not using the words "like" or "as"(that would make it a simile)
