College how it really is

My first week of class was interesting trying to learn new people and a new system.  Obvious difference is the work load.  High school was easier because you were given an assignment at least once or twice a week if that.  Test were also prepared by the teacher and you studied for them.  College you are almost always going to have some type of work at least every class.  One thing I really noticed is the reading load has become a lot more.  High school you really didn't have to read or study much to get a good grade. In college it is obvious if you don't read and study you will fail.  High school was more rules as to what you can and can not do college is more of its on you to do the right thing.  No one baby sits you or holds your hand you either do good or party.  College is also more freedom, but everyone treats you like an adult instead of a kid.  I like having a syllabus for school it helps keep me structured and that is what I like.  Assignments can be more basic, but can also be a lot more work.  Papers are more frequent and writing and reading is almost a given.
