What should every freshman at Fox Valley Technical College know before they start?

Robert

I would tell myself to get help with learning how to study and get homework done. I have an extremely hard time getting work done and found out that there is help out there.

If i could go back and give myself adivce, i would tell myself to follow my heart. I would tell myself to pick a school that had a degree or program that i wanted to get into. I would tell myself not to worry what i am going for and just focus on myself. Not worry about what others think or may say to me about what I am going for. I would also tell myself not to jump into a college or program just to have one, to find what interests me no matter what school or where, and dedicate myself to it even if others do not believe in me.

First, I would have paid more attention to math. I was struggling going through the math courses this semester. Plus, no matter what field you're going into, math always has a role somewhere. Second, I would have saved more money (and my parents should have done the same) so the financial burden would be less. Getting a job is an option; however, I want to concentrate fully on my studies since this is what I want to do for my future career. And last, I would convince all students to further their education.

I would tell my high school senior self not to procrastinate, but work hard and be ready before the deadline. Don't spend all your money on worthless things that is only good for the moment. Save it for your books and other class materials. Also to build good studying habits and manage time wisely. I would also say " don't exercise your freedom too much", but trust your gut when it says " go home and call it a night". This is what I would tell my high school senior self to prep for.
