A. Im just a regular kid going to college to get a degree. Im also korean, and thts about it.
B. My first concern about freshman year is trying to stay focused in class. In highschool I never really paid much attention in class and that really screwed me up so Im gonna have to try to pay attention to what the teacher says. My second concern is to try to not fail. Im really worried that I am going to fail a course and to prevent that I will probably have to study hard. My third concern is getting too much work from each course.
C. I dont think going to Baruch is that much different than going to highschool. Besides the fact that I have to take the train and bus everyday and my commute is about an hour. The only difference is that I used to drive to my highschool everyday and it was a 5 min. Now that I dont have a car anymore because it broke down I cant drive to school. Also teachers dont call your parents about grades here, everything is based on my responsibility. All they do is teach and everything else you have to do on your own. Transportation and teachers are really the only difference between highschool and college everything else is basically the same.
D. I dont think that going to college is going to change me to much as a person, but I think it will help me be more independent. Going to college in the city makes me more independent now because I dont live with my parents anymore and have my own place which takes alot of responsibility and Im still adjusting to it. I think doing everything on my own now, I think by the end of this year I will be more responsible.
