I've been thinking a lot about college lately. Stressing is probably a better word than thinking. Regardless, I'm just curious how it differs from daily life. From the snippets that I've heard about college, an average day consists of a few hours of classes, and then you get to play vidya in your dorm for the rest of the day. Enlighten me.

Yeah, that's pretty much it, unless you bother to have a social life.

My schedule seems to be easy for the first semester, but I'm not really interested in the classes.

Honestly, how much time do you spend studying/doing school work each day?

2.5 - 4 hours of class in a typical day, with usually at least one day of the week being less or more than that

maybe an hour a day of homework, at least for my kinds of classes, which at this point are all english courses of some sort

back when i had other types of classes, it was more like two hours a day of homework, if that...but i never had to take math, so yeah

You still have a year left no reason to stress yet.

Anyway I'll tell you when I get there. Though I always study less than everyone so my reports might not be entirely accurate.

I just found out that my school is suposedly the biggest party school in MA.  giggle;

unfrtunately for me if I fail even one class (D counts as failing) then I'll lose my 30K scholarship and have to drop out.  Soooo I really have to pay attention to homework and whatnot.

I'm pretty sure UMass Amherst gets that title.

Maybe, but Worcester has more party schools all in a much closer proximity. Combined, we are unstoppable.  akudood;

YPrrrr

My average day of college consisted of waking up at 9 AM, falling asleep for 40 minutes, taking a 3 minute shower and sprinting (not literally) to my 9:55 class. I'd have 2-3 hours of class, come back, eat lunch, and basically do nothing productive until 2 in the morning when I might do homework for an hour.

You'll probably end up regretting scheduling classes so early. It sounds good on paper, but I ended up hating it regardless of being done so early.

HEY HEY GUYS

i got my room assignment today! I'm so excited, mostly because I already know a good amount of people in my building (even though I've never heard of my roommate, but that'll change soon).
