College? Oh, no!

happy_doughnut · Oct 9th, 2003, 07:25 PM

Hello, everybody!

Seems like I've been away for a while now, and that's basically because of one reason: college.

Gah, I can't even begin to tell you how stressed out I am! >.<; I mean, most of the applications are to be in by December, so I need to (seriously) decide where it is I'm going to apply to. This, believe it or not, is incredibly hard for me! For one, I don't really know what I want to major in, and secondly, I don't think I'm going to get into anything (you how that is

)! Eek! I mean, you know...," What if I get turned out for every college?" "What if I get a 200 on my SATs?!" - Those things. ^_^
And then, my classes are so terribly hard! To put in bluntly: I haven't played a game in months because I just don't have any time! Ack!

Oh, and I'm taking my SAT I this Saturday and my ACT test later this month...and my SAT II's in November ...

*sigh*

So, yeah... now that you know where I've been (along with my low blood pressure

), here's a question:

For those who have gone to (or are in) college, what did you choose? Do you think a 4 year undergrad. uni. is better or a community college + transfer?

And for those, that like me, are barely going to go: Do you see yourself going straight to a 4-year uni. or to a junior (CC) college first?

And of course, why?

I'm really interested in your opinions, you guys!

Oh, and... it's great to see everyone again!

I'm going to a community college and plan on transferring myself, mainly because I never took the SATs and my GPA when I graduated high school last June was a little higher than a 2.0 but not by much. I'm not sure what would be better, guess it depends on you.

Good to hear from you, but I'm afraid I can't help you mate....cause we got a whole different college system over here and quit frankly I don't have the slightest clue what your talking about. I hope things work out for you and I think you'll make the right choices my friend. Just go by your feelings and you'll do fine.

At the very worst, you could go to a junior college if for some reason you werent accepted by a major school. But, i doubt that will happen. A good friend of mine has a son who is already studying for the SAT in the tenth grade, there is a class set up for that, so although i gather you havent gotten that chance, some do. I expect your experiencing the jitters that a young person your age encounters, but will then be pleasantly surprised to see everything go well as you meet the challenges ahead....

MENA! We missed you! I thought you were kept in some gloomy prison by some evil creature, like a striped two-headed rabbit!

Choosing, when you have to start college or university, is always difficult, but I know you can do it better than most people! We're all crossing our fingers! At least, I'll do it for you!

Good luck!

I remember having to do the all important choice thing last year.

Cept I didn't have to do those tests.

Good Luck.

Mena, I'm sure you'll do fine! First time you have to choose you're kinda afraid to fail or to make mistakes, but don't worry! And good luck with tests!
