I am ungergoing my college studies right now. But some where down the line i feel that my shool life was much better. Today i don't have even much time to spend with parents and friends. Most of the time i am surrounded with assignments, and other stuffs. But in school i had lot more time. What is your opinion about this?

Definitely whatever the heck I want and I always have my friends around me. It's great. College def takes time to adjust. My first semester blowed and I just wanted to leave. But now, I'm a second semester sophomore and having the time of my life! School work does take a lot of time, but I basically adore all my classes. High school was boring. The teachers weren't that great and the people were all the same. I'm stoked on college.

I enjoyed school life a lot and I am now in the college. But since my class is very small I can't really enjoy my college life.

I've enjoyed my college life the most.. i've studied in an all girl school and i've established good relationship with my girl friends.. The Biology class composed of only 19 students and i've become so close to 7 of them.. Here are the name of my friends: Lea Camille, Allan Rae, Jovy, Athena, Cathy, Minette and Abby. Lea was my closest friend, she was like a sister to me.. and yes, we've been lab partners for years.. we have the same taste when it comes to a lot of things that's why we really jive.. There were times that we have skipped classes to watch a movie, go shopping, etc.. i miss my buddies and i'm looking forward to seeing them again soon..

I enjoyed my college life better than compared to school life. because, in schools, we may be afraid on our studies, but things are not so in colleges. So for me, college life is the best one.

When I think back I used to hate going to school... I was hardly ever ther because of this!!!!! My first college course, I treated like school... but after that I settled down. It was only wen I got to the age of 20 when I went to University that I actually started to want to learn... I just dont think my head was up to it when I was at school, I just couldnt seem to concentrate. Im fine though now, I just can stop learning,, and Im always wanting to keep myself busy by doing something. I think University has taught me alot and I thank it sooooo much for that.

for me, i enjoyed the most my school life because studying was easier then, and i had a lot of extra-curricular activities in school. Also, i have a very good set of friends who are still my good friends until now. whereas in college life, each students and my classmates had different likes and they were pre-occupied with their own thing. life is more independent in college life. Also, the competition is different in college.

I enjoyed my high school life than my college life. In high school all the crazy stuff like going to the beach raining, fishing, going out to the farm to pick wild lilies and orchids can be easily done, I and my friends were always having picnics in the afternoon even if it is high tide. I have an intact group of friends who shared my silliness and childish behavior. But in college, the whole thing are quite different, most my friends in the campus has another likes and they go to the places I did not like so I ended up going to my boarding house instead of going out with them.

I loved college. I never was that good in high school, but when I got to college I seemed to fit in better. I had a great 4 years at college...I was sad to see them end. I'm hoping for a Ph.D. one day.

I am totally with you. Back in high school I had more time for family and time to do things with friends. Now I am asking friends over to study for a test together and thats certainly no fun. Its an hour drive to get home and some weekends I have tests coming up and so I can't go home. I have also decided that people were more mature in high school (sounds weird, I know). I never fought with people, never had people stab me in the back. Got to college and I have decided to not get close to anyone after 6 people stabbing me in the back in 6 years. I'm just ready to finish it and get out in the real world!

Mehhh both have their pros and cons high school had less work, but less freedom in college, you have more freedom but also more stress! I'm undecided

I enjoyed college a lot. I had a lot of freedom during this stage and it was easier to manage my time. In college, I had the chance to pick the number of units that I needed and most of all, I could choose my own schedule! I also learned how to be more independent because during that time, I stayed at the university's dormitory. Though I often missed my family, it was so much easier to study because I didn't have to travel long everyday.

I am totally experiencing this too. What I love about college life: -You get your freedom. You decide what you want to do and when you want to do it. -You get time away from the 'rents. -There are like a million free events going on at my school, all the time (free giveaways, shows, contests, fairs, etc). What I dislike about college life: -You get almost too much freedom (you have to learn how to prioritize very well - otherwise you'll pretty much be screwed.) -Everyday's a party, especially if you live on dorms. My school is a party school for sure. Is yours? While partying is fun on the weekends..It can get really annoying if you're trying to study and down the hall, next door, or across the street. -People are cliquey. I don't like this - i feel like it's harder to make good, true friends in college, unless you have mutual friends. -If you thought studying took up a lot of time in high school.. well it's 10x harder in college! Wouldn't you agree? -Unless you go to schools where your good friends go, you have to spend a lot of time away from them. =(

I found school quite enjoyable but not so lovely that I wanted to stay there after age 16. I loved going to college at that age and I lived term time in a room overlooking the River Thames. I enjoyed what I studied and had much time for socializing. At university I was frequently surrounded with assignments and given the locations of the schools teaching practice could be tiring.

I loved my college life better than my high school life. I think I found more of myself while I was in college than in high school. I was more comfortable in college and felt like I could be myself and not be judged. College was probably one of the best times of my life.

hi kuncheriapraveen :) well every step in your life must be different ,coz you don't want to get board of living in the same rotean and I think college life is better ,coz you can meet all kind fo people , have good communications , enlarge your studies and inforamtion.but, in school it's small comunity and all student know each other and don't get connect with others outside ,when I was in school I found that good and more confortable.but, when I went to my college I found that a whole new world waiting for me and alot fun,even if we work much harder it's ok.coz in a way or another we gonna need it to experience that kind of life.( and don't worry my friend you will pass that on ,it's just the beginning.so, How about that ??

College life is the best because you make your own decisions their. You can decide on what time you are going to school. You wont even worr if you are going to be absent for the day. But the downside is that you have to be really responsible because if you keep in missing classes, you will surely fail your subjects and failing them is a waste of money and time.
