Yeah, seriously, the school/college/uni times are some of the best you'll have. It also helps if you can do it somewhere cool.

I didn't find study stress at all bad and never have, more frustration than anything, it can't be compared to the shit you have to put up with later.

I will finish my study days in like 5 days from now ;)

I will miss them a lot :cry:

but the idea of having no job scares me a lot :scared:
IMO attending lectures, going to uni and all that isn't that bad, i actually enjoy it. The bad thing about uni, is all the work you have to do. That i will never miss.

Don't scare him. Uni isn't that bad :D
When you have to wake up at 6, and not get home until 11 at night, then you can tell her that uni isn't that bad. :p

I'm sorry, the way I approach Uni makes it not bad :p
We got the same approach, except I travel longer. ;)

Anyway, not even going to class my friend wants to skip. DOWN!

How swell!

I honestly don't even know what to expect (in terms of amount) work/study-wise.

Does anyone remember what they thought of Uni before they went?
You have to step it up. If I did 2 hours of work on each of the working days of the week I would be chillin at the exams. In High School you just chilled at exams without doing anything iirc

If you got 80s-90s in high school, you gotta expect a lot lower in uni, and if you want to keep those grades, you gotta stay on top of everything. Readings, assignments, etc. If you leave everything to the last minute you'll be getting high 50s-low 70s....unless you're Nzoric. :D

I got through fine to a pretty good course and I literally did jack shit last year. I pretty much winged my final exams on natural ability. That's not going to help at all in Uni though...

What kind of work? Does that include reading or doing questions and essays etc?

Nah I didn't get 80s or 90s more like mostly 60s-80s though that is with very very minimal study. I pretty much only did a decent amount of work for Italian and I got B+s for my results.

I expect the same, but if i see what my colleagues at the internship have to do as studying beside their jobs. it won't be less bussier while being in school.
and then I have only done a BA.

I would so love to do a master :cry:

It also depends what you're going to study. For classes that involve a lot of writing, make sure you understand the readings because it's not so easy to wing it. You can scrape by doing minimal work, but even that is hard. I always had 80s and 90s and now my average is like a 60.
