High School and College - Two Different Worlds

 

            College and high school are two very different worlds; however, both are a vital part of the journey towards achieving a good education. Everyone has different opinions about high school and college life; however, not all are aware of the possible similarities and differences between them. The life of students in high school and college can be compared in terms of academic responsibilities, studying, and decision making. .
             Academics are an important factor in one's education. First of all, high school is the first step of learning into a higher level. When it comes to academics, the homework and seat work are not that difficult and heavy. Deadlines for submissions of paper are not immediate; therefore, students are more relax because of few requirements of the class. Also, the topics that are being taught are generalized in basic math, science, social studies, and many other subjects. College, on the other hand is a different story. In college, they choose their own career path; therefore the curriculum is much more specific and complicated. Professors teach the students more about the career they chose. The workload is much more complex and heavier. Teachers gave the students a syllabus, and all the due dates for their assignments are listed, and should be followed. .
             Another difference is the calibre of studying in high school and college. In high school, students go through those times when they do not want to study; instead they use those times to go out with their friends. They put aside all their assignments, and they forgot about them. In school, the teacher allows the students to be in groups of four or more, and they study their lessons together. On the other hand, college students give more importance to their studying. We all know how hard our courses are. It takes hours and hours of studying in order for us to know the difficult and important terms in our lessons. Sometimes students do not have time to socialize and gather with their friends.
