FRO + Baruch experience

I didn’t expect Freshman Seminar to be such an informal class. I thought was quite nice since it made the atmosphere more friendly. I also didn’t expect there to be homework. Hm. But overall, it really was a nice experience , especially being able to get good guidance from your advisor and your peer mentor every week. It really helped iron out all the mess leading up to creating schedules and tell you what you need to do to survive in college. Thanks Ms. Lancia and Namit! 😀

Baruch so far has been what I expected of commuter college. Well, I actually didn’t know much about how college worked so I didn’t really expect much at all besides the fact that it’s school. I was told numerous times in my high school that college life is way more relaxed and easier unless you go to an Ivy League (or an equivalent). I wish I could say that was true, but I’m not too sure. The workload somehow adds up to be the same, even though I have less classes. I think it’s really just me with time management problems, so meh. The school itself is nice and inviting, so it’s a positive experience so far (Escalators and roomy elevators ftw!).
