1 semester at a college, should i do it?
    #12171045 -

I bearly scaped high school with a D and piddy. I always thought college would be to much. I been thinking maybe go for 1 semester. If i like it right on if i fail horribly then at least i can say i tried and never wonder.

Sound like a good idea? I would defintly take the fun classes. I might get grants or use my settle money from a crash years ago.


eh why not?:shrug:

Go for it, dude.Pick three classes max, and at least one class that counts towards a degree.Also, use ratemyprofessor.com before registering for a class.Not every class will be easy, but it could be way easier than anything in high school and grammar school.And I'm not talking about teachers who will pass you no matter what, a lot of the time it's just less stressful, and of course, a class isn't five days a week.

i don't really like ratemyprofessor because half the people that use it give low scores for professors that assign homework or anything that isn't super easy

essentially ratemyprofessor works like this: The harder the class, the lower the score the professor gets.

And honestly, the majority of professors I have got a low score on their cuz of lots of homework, etc but I have found quite the opposite.

School is no big deal if you "grow up" and just do it.(not saying anything about you specifically, more about me really) Do what you need to do. period. That's my attitude now, I'm only in the G.E.D. Program, but then I have to go to a Pre-Algebra/College Entrance Exams learning center (for prep for the test, but They also teach the Pre-Algebra I need, which is good) after that I gotta do my first semester which my main focus for that is Algebra 1 and working on my Pre Req's for The Introductory Chemistry class (The very first Chem class you have to take before you work you're way into the others, which I'll have to learn Algebra 2 for...)

I'm only just going into it but the key is to have a good mindset and make your goals and STICK TO IT, and it's actually kinda fun, I have some nice teachers so far...

Oh, I agree, but it is worth checking out.Some teachers are pretty crazy.And also, positive feedbacks could help him also.

If you're not going into college with the mentality that you really want to be there and are set on succeeding  - then you're just throwing money away.  Fact:  college requires more effort than highschool.  if you didn't try very hard in highschool and left with Ds, then i'm pretty sure you can guess what your university grades will be (given the same amount of effort, obviously).

So:
-Go, if you're willing to do WORK, and TRY.
-Don't, if you plan on just having a ragefest all the time
-Take that money and enroll yourself in a technical school if you actually want a career but don't think college is right for ya



Not tryin to be a dick, just throwin' it out there --- these are tough times, and money is money.

This is true. Even though I'ma SkewlN00b...I can verify thiz, it's definitely the truth. It's the thing I've heard THE MOST from everyone I've spoken to. Just have a good attitude about, you have to catch yourself slippin', or having a negative attitude towards working for your grades and make it into a positive attitude...
