Preparing for College Schedules

College is one of the most exciting times in a person’s life. Everyone goes to college for virtually the same reasons: to party, meet new people….oh yea to get a college degree. The first two parts of college is the fun part, but the education is the toughest but main reason for going to college.
You classes can be easily forgotten when you go away to school. Because there is no one to tell you when to wake up except your roommate, (who is also probably sleeping as well) getting to those early morning classes will be a headache. There are some ways to get to an 8am class on time.
First, most college schedules have your classes every other day. You may only have that 8am class Mondays and Wednesdays. Make sure not to stay up really late the day before you have the earlier schedules. Another way to ensure that you get to class on time and study is to make a schedule for yourself.
The most important thing about college is being capable of keeping yourself focused. If you are focused, college will be fun and easy.

i totally agree with your advive of what to do with morning college classes and stuff, but i dont agree with what you said about why students go to college. i personally want to go to college to grow as a person and to find more
things about myself. if i was to go to school to only party and meet new people, then all i will have to do is
stay in dc or go to a nearby school. yes i am nervous about the amount of work that will be given to me, so the advice on how to be well-prepard for your 8am class is great advice! i also think that college is an oppurtunity for a person to BE ON TIME and well-rounded if they is not already.

I wish I had received this advice when I was going to college! I made the mistake of not doing enough time management. I think John provides some great advice. I would also recommend to look at the homework and reading you have assigned to you ahead of time and plan it out. Don't leave it all to the night before!
