Education & Employment: College Bound Students Beware!

ALL OF MY HIGH SCHOOL SENIORS AND COLLEGE BOUND STUDENTS!

I recently took a poll on Facebook and Yahoo Answers, for your benefit! The poll was to see which courses college students found the most challenging.

Now, my results have proved my theory wrong. I have always been good in both math and science, but usually had a harder time in math.

To my amazement, most of my colleagues have a harder time in science classes, i.e. Physics (ranked #1), followed by Chemisty, Botany and then Math! Gosh was I in disbelief when I received so many messages with Physics as the toughest subject. I LIKE PHYSICS!

Be very particular about your college studies, because it is much different than high school. You will not have a teacher on your back about coming to class or being tardy (although it is extremely rude to walk into your professors' class late, as well as disturbing to other students who are already prepared). Professors could care less about your attendance to their class, they get paid regardless.

My suggestion is that you spread your difficult and easy classes evenly. For example, if you have Calculus, Chemistry, Accounting, Composition, Biology, Music History, Sociology and Information Systems to take over the course of one school year, then here is my suggestion: Semester 1; Chemistry, Composition, Sociology and Information Systems. Take Accounting, Biology, Music History and Calculus during your second semester.

Have fun! If you need any advice on what classes to take, email me at missbuildingblocks@yahoo.com!

What you must remember is how to study these subjects.... until next time!
