A) I have to admit, Baruch has not lived up to my expectations. I dont dread my decision of coming here however. I’ve always enjoyed the competitivness and school in general. There are many ways for you to get help in almost any type of situation you are in. It takes some getting used to with the new learning style but it’s one that I believe everyone has to cope with.I’m trying to complain though, I’m only a freshman and my college “career” just started. I think its too quick to judge Baruch already.
B) I think so far, my first semester at Baruch has been okay. It hasn’t been the best and it hasn’t been the worst ever. College is about sacrafices and working really hard. It’s just something I had to get used to. I wish I had made that choice sooner. There are mistakes that I’ve made that I can’t take back. They are just some that I have to learn and live from.
C) If I could go back and time and do my first semester all over again I would. I like all of my classes, and the time frame in my schedule wasn’t bad. I just wish that I studied more and did not procrastinate. I would’ve probably not have to drop a class and been gettin A’s in everything. Sadly, not everything always works like that. But those are the two major things that I would change if I had the chance to do my first semester all over again.
D) I don’t think that I’ve changed drastically since attending Baruch. I am more prone to the city life-style. I’m also aware of the values of money. As quick as you can get it, is not half as quick as it goes. In the beginnging I hateded my breaks. But after a while, I realized how important they really are. If you happen to forget to do a homework assignment or study you can use those breaks to help you out. Since I also started Baruch I continued with my ultimate bad habit of procastination. It wasn’t until I bombed the monologue that I had to do in FRO, that I realized how embarrassing and stupid it is to not be prepared.
