I wish that I had known just how often that I needed to check my class's website for assignments and quizzes. I missed a couple quizes during my first semester due to not checking it regularly.

Nothing..I already knew everything by researching

Shannon

I can honestly say I wish i would have learned more in regards to how to study properly. Its evident to me that i didnt really know how to study properly coming into college and since ive been here i can say that effective study habits have been somewhat of a struggle for me.

Brittany

I wish I had known that Austin Peay was so family oriented. Everyone is a person wiith value. People are not just numbers at Austin Peay State University. If I would have known this then I would have came to Austin Peay sooner.

Brandy

I wish I would have realized that college was not going to just be an easy breeze. College is not just a fun game individuals choose to play. College is hard and challenging. However, even though college challenges you to do your very best there are many opportunities to become involved on campus. By becoming involved you are connected with a wide range of friends who are always right by your side when you need them. College is a lot of fun but it can be very challenging from time to time.

I wish that i would have known that the professors gave out alot of homework and that i needed to improve my study habits. Also, i wish that i knew how to write a paper that was on a college level.

I wish i had known how to use the websit "rate my professor" so i would have been abl to select the best teachers for me. I like teachers who physically do things not just stand up front monotoned and boring just talking. Also if I would have known the campus buildings location's and names a little bit more then i would have been more confident on where i was going to.

Before I came to college, I wish I had known the following things: 1. Don't procastinate. 2. Don't go crazy the first semester away from home, your GPA will not like you if you party all the time. 3. Get involved the day you get to campus, it makes the college experience that much more rewarding.

It is a backpack college; meaning, it can sometimes be a little deserted on the weekends.
