I can be identified as many different person. First of all, I am a freshman in Baruch College. Some people also see me as a person who attends church. My parent can see me as a first son in the family and my brother can see me as a big brother. Last of all, my friends can see me as a good and loyal friend. Most importantly, I see me as a person who trying to ace the college classes and trying to live hardest and live a good life. I tried hard in all of my classes but at the same time, I am trying to spend time with family, friends, and in church.
My biggest concern in Baruch College is the fact that I have to maintain 3.2 GPA to keep on receiving the Dean’s Scholarship. I am taking 5 classes and anthropology and history classes are giving me a hard time. Becasue of these two classes, I am worried that i might not be able to keep up the GPA. My 2nd biggest concern is the commuting. I live in Port Washington (in Long Island). I calculated my commuting time and it takes around 3 hours to travel back and forth to Baruch from my house. I hope I can move out soon so I dont have to travel so much. My last concern (was) making friends. This was a big concern when I first entered college but I started to make friends by going to various clubs and talking to students in the classes. So the last one is taken care of.
In my opinion, high school and college both have similarity and difference. The similiarity is that I have to commute to school. Also, classes are not that much different from high school. However, college works are much harder and goes into much more detail. In addition, classes are longer and breaks are longer between the classes. I also think that college have a lot more independence. In high school, teachers take care a lot for students but in college, students have to make time to go see the professor at certain help time to get help. Lastly, I take less classes in college than high school, but I have more work than high school.
I think the first year at Baruch will change me in many ways. I think I will be more independent. Also, I will know how to manage time and schedule. Lastly, I will be more studius and will study harder to achieve high GPA
