a. Tell us how your experience at Baruch College has lived up to your expectations? Not lived to your expectations?
My experience at Baruch was better than I expected it to be. The classes are better than what I expected, with the exception of one or two of them. The amount of work we get is about what I thought it’d be for the first semester. The atmosphere is pretty good. Even though it’s a commuter school, people are very friendly. Some places, like the library, are better-looking than I expected, which is a big plus. I can’t really say Baruch didn’t live up to my expectations- I’m not disappointed about the first half of freshman year.
b. How well do you think your first semester at Baruch College went?
Pretty well overall. Grade-wise, I wish I would’ve done better. I’m satisfied 
c. What would you do differently during your first semester if you could do it all again?
I would’ve been more relaxed about certain things instead of stressing out about every single little detail. Instead of going to class sleep-deprived, I would probably sleep earlier than I do now for more energy. And I would probably try to meet more people and get even more involved with the school.
d. How have you changed since you started at Baruch College?
I procrastinate more now, since there are no classes on Fridays. However, I do work harder on the homework and things like that. Besides that, I’d like to think I’ve gotten more ‘mature’ since college. I do more things that are outside my comfort zone (at least compared to before). I can’t wait for the next semester!
