My first semester in Baruch was very crazy. In the beginning, I honestly thought this wasn’t the school for me. There were definitely a great amount of work and the stress level was super high. At times, the gap hours would be a bit boring also because I didn’t know what to do during my free time. The number of hours of sleep I would get would decrease day by day and college was just so different from high school. However with this many downs came along many ups as well. I didn’t succeed yet but I’m still trying to work on my time management problems so that the stress level and hours of sleep I get will become better. I also made many new friends which made gaps a lot more fun. Yes, college is very different from high school but I learned to enjoy these changes and have a little fun with them. I am growing to become more independent and I feel like college is changing me for the better. I am looking forward to my next 4 years in Baruch!
