What's the most frustrating thing about North Carolina State University at Raleigh?

The most frustrating thing about my school is lack of space provided. There are around 34,000+ students that attend this fine university, but the facilities (i.e. gym, library, dining hall), are always crowded because there isn't enough space for a large number of students.

The Chemistry classes are the most frustrating thing for me. They make them almost impossible to pass. I took AP Chemistry in high school and I had a UNC Chemistry major graduate as my teacher. I still struggled so much in Chemistry at State. They say that it is a weed out class so that they can get rid of the students who are not serious but, I do not think that this is ethically right.

The life of a college freshman is slightly overwhelming between rigorous course loads and adjusting to living on campus. The most frustrating process has been advising and registering for classes.Though I thoroughly believe the advising office was overwhelmed, it made the registeration process for classes extremely difficult. I looked like a fish out of the water as I and twenty other students attempted to pick the classes we hopefully would be able to survive in. It was the most frustrating process ,but in the end the most rewarding process as I was able to learn on my own.

The most frustrating thing about my school is the walk to class. It can be very long depending on what class you have. It's especially annoying when the weather is bad.

Dining hours

Eboni

The most frustrating thing about my school is that some classes are too far for a walk.

Thanh

My school can seem really, really big and can cause a person to feel very smell and alone. It takes effort to find the right niche for you on campus. It's harder to make friends in larger classes and large clubs.

The on campus dining starts to get old after a while. On-campus parking is also frustrating sometimes.

NC State is located in the middle of a city, therefore everything is very far away. A lot of time is wasted in commuting and walking from one place to another. Time spent commuting that could be better spent studying and volunteering.

How large NC State is. Sometimes it's easy to feel a little lost on campus.
