I said it once, and I'll say it again.
Beginner's Tips for college:
#1: Freshmen get screwed on their schedule. If a class is offered at 7:20 AM, you will get the 7:20 AM class - everytime. Best to identify and enroll in a class that is ONLY offered at that time - then drop it promptly after you schedule is set. Now you can sleep in. Ahhhh.
#2: Know when to identify a total prick of a teacher - and drop the class. If it is a manditory class, see if you can take it Pass/Fail only. This way you get the credit for the class if you pass it, but it wont hurt your GPA if you Barely pass it.
Look for teachers who say things like,"Many of you, I am sure, think this class will be easy..." Drop it like a turd or you will NEVER work so hard for a D+ in your life. It is never worth it.
#3: Do not join a fraternity - at least not as a freshman. School is hard enough without all the parties, booze and dope! I am an expert on this one - trust me. As a member of a very social Fraternity, I have seen so many freshman pledges drop out or get forcibly removed by their parents. We ate freshman pledges for breakfast.
#4: Find a very quiet, secluded section of the library to do major papers or studying in. Distractions are a disaster.
#5: This is the most important thing you can possibly do. This will make or break your college career. ONLY DATE GIRLS WHO CAN TYPE! Who do you think is going to type up that hellacious research study you just completed at 3:00 AM and is due by 10:00 AM??? You??? Forget it, your brain is fried by now. Thats when finding the right girl is essential! She will do it for you every time. Phew! Arent you glad you got all that great advice?
