I have been Major and Minor fair. By the way, I was disappointed for this because I did not choose my major and there is nothing helping for me. Actually I did not want to go there. However it was workshop.Therefore I feel that’s wasting time

My expectations of college experience

There are few things which I expect from the college experience. I expect many things in college that are better than in high school. For me as an international student, I feel special that I go to an American college. So the first thing I expect from the college is the educational part. College is a very last place for the people to learn. After you graduate college, you have to get a job, and then earn money. It means that I have to make a preparation for the future in this college. So the classes in college are very important. I haven’t taken that many classes, but I am expecting a lot that I am going to take the classes which I am interested in and which are related to my major.
Another expectation of college experience is to have many friends. I heard having lots of friends in college is good too. So you will be able to do lots of activities and make memories with the friends. Having lots of friend will also be helpful even after you graduate college. I also expect to have many friends in the college. This is all what I expect from the college experience.

Hello, my name is Donghan Kim. It hasn’t been that long time since I came abroad from Korea. So I am unfamiliar with America now. I want to study English. I want to know more about America. I want to achieve my ultimate goal in USA. My goal is to become a successful businessman. I am an active person so I like to get close to people. I also like sports and listening to music. I want to do lots of activities in college.

There are three concerns at Baruch college. The first one is my GPA. I heard that GPA is very important. I am not that good in English so I am very worried if I can keep up with the classes. The second one is about the communication with people. With my English skill, I can’t easily talk to the people other than Koreans. My last one is about my future. I am worried if I can get a good job after I graduate college. I hope that I can resolve these concerns.

I think there are differences between in high school and in college. There were ESL classes in high school so I could follow the classes easily. However, there are no ESL classes in the college. In Baruch college has less class days than in high school but the subjects in college are harder than the ones in high school.

I think the first year at Baruch college will change me into a better student. The reason is that I have to focus more on studying so I can improve my English skills. To get the job in the future, the stuff learning in college is very important to me. So I feel that studying in college will make me into a good person.
