Kasper Kowalczyk – Blog Post #1

Hi, I am Kasper.  I am intelligent.  I work hard and do what I need to to accomplish my goal.  When I have an assignment to do, I usually try to do it all at once, instead of splitting it up.  And when I start something, I usually try to finish it.  However, I usually procrastinate till the last minute.  As for my top three concerns, my top one is the workload.  From what I hear, college requires a lot more work than high school.  I think that I will be able to handle it but I have not yet experience the full workload of college.  Another concern of mine is meeting new people.  All of my friends from high school go to different schools, so I will need to meet and make new friends at Baruch.  My third and final concern is staying at Baruch.  I am not sure what the requirements are to become a full time student.  College will definitely be different from high school.  For starters, we choose our own classes, and they are not right after each other.  Also, if you need help, you need to go to the professor, he/she won’t come to you.  As for homework, in high school, I did most of my work in school.  However in college, you will need to do the work on your own time.  I think that attending Baruch will change me for the better.  It will force me to become more responsible.  I will need to manage my time better, and make sure that I have my work finished on time.  I will be accountable for the work I do, and the work that I don’t.
