Dolibeth

I would definitely brace myself and now that I understand the difference between college life and high school life, I would tell myself to enjoy it while it lasted. Coming into college I had the mentality that it was a lot like high school, most of the learning in class and then the homework to reinforce what you learned in class, but I quickly learned that I was sadly mistaken. In college, although the teachers are there to help and guide you when you have problems, you are expected to teach yourself almost. The readings that are assigned are what you have to digest the most, as opposed to high school where the most vital information you learn is taught to you inside the classroom. I would just tell myself to be prepared to take more responsibility and take control over how you manage your time, because if you don't give yourself a sufficient amount of time to study and do the readings, then you will do poorlu in the classes.
