So what have you guys noticed about College life? Is it really still highschool in a new place?

Personally, I've noticed that socially, it seems to be more or less the same. I can say however that I am much more impressed with the overall care that the professors give although necessary considering I'm paying for it. Resources are actually pretty decent where I am albeit a nicer two year college.

I don't have any certifications nor have I ever attended college, but I can speak for friends who have.

Although they say It's pretty Intense at times, they do In fact enjoy their learning experience- Inclusive of both the lecturers and the availability of resources. To the contrary of school, they speak quite highly of college.

I love college, the experience is way better then highschool, I'm actually learning things that matter to me, I've also met a lot of cool people, it's awesome talking to other computer science majors about projects we are working on

How is that major for you? Easy? hard?

College life is great if you pick the right majors and college itself lol

The hardest part for me is the math part of it, if I could see the math I'll be using with computers I think that would help me out but other then that it's moderately easy, programming classes get pretty rough, and if you take an A+ course or Cisco course ask for a certification test you get a free attempt since you took the courses! I failed to do that and I'm kicking myself for it! I need to get my A+ and CCNA+ certifications it really would help

I have an associates in network engineering I got my degree but I slacked off hard so I didn't retain much, I'm regretting the fact I didn't put hard work into it, currently I'm working on my bachelors in computer science study hard don't party too much and try to get an internship as soon as you can, and don't let your boss make it seem like that retail job is more important then your education. Follow those rules and you will make it far with college

Well
Here in England, secondary school (11-16) has people who are attending school because they have to. This leads to people being disruptive in class and other annoying behaviours thinking that they are cool (in my experience anyway)
But when it comes to sixth form/college(I am not here just yet, but I have had a few days as taster sessions) people tend to be much more willing to study(as they went through the hassle of applying and everything) Because of this, college/sixth form is a much more enjoyable experience In my opinion.
