College is Harder? Really?

College is nothing like what my high school teachers said it would be like. They said that I would never have any free time, I would have essays due every week, and that my classes would be way harder than what I was taking in high school. Most of my classes were AP classes in high school, and those classes had a teacher who said they were going easy on us compared to what our college professors would be like. I was told that I would not survive college, that I was too laid back, and that my attitude towards school was going to be my own worst enemy. All that was a lie, college is fine.

All my professors are extremely nice and understanding. They are always willing to help Me if I need help, and the only class that I have to write “big” essays for is my writing class, and my teacher helped the class every step of the way when writing them. You must go against and argue with her to make that class hard for you. The only thing that I am struggling with right now is catching up with my classes because I was out sick for a week, and even then, I have less to do than I would in a week of high school. The professors here are a lot more helpful in getting me caught up too than any of my high school teachers would have been. So honestly, college is way better and easier than high school, nothing like those teachers said.
