Arizona State University-Tempe Top Questions

What's the one thing you wish someone had told you about freshman year?

Brittany

I wish that I had taken a physics course.

Justin

Dont listen to the advisors. They will only cause you to take classes you dont need

Elizabeth

I wish I had known which high school credits actually applied to my major.

Christine

I wish I had better study habits. I was used to not really having to study in high school and still succeed with an active social life, but when college came around it was harder to maneuver my schedule. Once again it is a time management issue.

Sarah

That sophomores get the shaft when it comes time to schedule, and that basic lectures have usually a couple hundred students in them.

Lindsay

That college isn't easy but it is do-able. That making friends further in college isn't as easy at the start.

Carolina

I wish I would have prepared myself more in math because in what I am majoring right now requires a lot of math and I wish I would have studied harder and that way I can understand math easier. I also wish I would have applied to more scholarships so I can get all my school paid off and since bioengineering is really hard and I cannot work then the scholarships would have helped me maintain myself during the year without working since my parents cannot afford to pay for my personal things.

HyunJu

The temperature. It gets very hot especially during the summer. Now I'm used to it and I prefer being hot to being cold. However, dryness here is ridiculous. So you might want to prepare yourself for drinking lots and lots of water.

Chris

Nothing I was pretty prepared and ready for college. I had never visited Arizona before, but there were no real surprises. I didn't know there were so many homeless people or bums in the tempe area, but they don't bother me.

Robert

How awesome it was!
