what surprised me the most about college and how overcame it was uh definitely um when I entered College you know it was very different than high school because of the free time um in high school you usually have eight hour days but in college your days are not necessarily as long uh you have a lot more free time and what you would consider school time in high school uh so you're not in school from 7: to 3: or whatever hours it may be but you may be in school from 9:30 to 12: uh and have
the rest of the day um to do whatever you want and I think that was the biggest shock um one of the biggest shocks I I I experienced in in college and I overcame it uh because uh I studied um well I prepared well and um for it you know it took me a week or so to get used to it um but I realized that I could couldn't waste my time I had to use my time and if I had time left over that was good it was normal uh and I try not to
freak out about it and um I guess that's what you can say that um was my hardest uh or my my biggest surprise when I came into into college was how to manage that time
