My first semester at Baruch College almost has done. now I am trying to summarize my first semester. In the beginning of the school. I felt so excited because I could learn more knowledge and know more people. The the college is completely different with the high school. Professors’ teaching style is more open than that of the high school teacher. I have more free time. As the time past, I find out that the college become more and more difficult.
The philosophy is a difficult course. this course requires us to keep thinking thinking and thinking. it’s hard for me to follow the professor’s idea. also the reading materials challenge my poor reading ability. they are so complicated to read for me. finally, I did not drop this course because I don’t want take again. maybe someday, my reading ability be improved, I would like to learn more about philosophy. It is a really thoughtful course.
I think the freshman seminar is really helpful. It tried to help us transit from high school to the college. It help us adjust the college culture. It teach us how to deal with the college essay and how to do the research. through the freshman seminar I know more about the college and help me have a good experience in the college.
in the college, one of my expectations is building up friendship. friends are important to me in the college. when I was in trouble with the classes. I always can get help from my friends. Also the time management is a challenge. I hope I will manage my time much better next semester.
