My first semester at Baruch College was quite difficult to start at the beginning. I expected to know a lot of people and get accustomed to the college life, but there were more challenges than what I expected. I feel like I can do it better if I could step out my comfort zone a little further. I expected to get good grades and join many clubs but getting to the end of the first semester, I am not successful for doing that. Also, I think I was not comfortable to read through all the assigned reading because they were hard to understand. But, the good thing of it is my reading ability is getting better and I can read faster than before.
I think my first semester at Baruch College went pretty good. I was doing things correctly and had chances to make friends with other fellow students. I think I improve my time management at college and I am a more independent person now. School works are hard but I am trying my best to get the best result. I learned a lot of new knowledge and new people, all those experience inspire me to become a better and well-around person. I feel like I am getting closer to join in the Baruch community. Besides taking subway every single day, I think Baruch is the best for me now.
If I had a chance to do it again, I think I would spend more time on study and mange my time better to stop being late in the calculus class. I would have more participation in classes.
I didn’t recognize my change since I stared at Baruch College, but my parents said I was putting more time in study than I was in high school. If I have to say one thing I changed, I would say it is my attitude of study. I learn that if I was not getting more serious on study, I was not going to get a poor grade at the end of semester. This thought pushed me to focus on my study so far.
To sum up, I think I learn a lot from my freshman experience at Baruch College. It starts a new chapter in my life.
