What should every freshman at your school know before they start?
Given the chance to go back to talk to myself as a high school senior, I would let myself know some things to expect in college and to take my grades more seriously therefore making it easier for me to get accepted to college. I would tell myself to not worry about impressing my peers, but to impress the teachers with better study habbits and a progressive GPA. Though, I would not advise myself to change anything about my social personality and my life expectations. All my life I have have long term goals of becoming a lawyer and I knew that I had to getinto college if that could at all be possible. Although I did not know where to start, I was persistant enough to find out on my own. I am now in a two year college with the highest GPA I have ever had. Given the chance to tell myself a little about what to expect probably would.nt prepare me more than I am now, but the change my studying habbits in high school would have helped me in having more options and choices in preparing for college.

What's the one thing you wish someone had told you about freshman year?
Since I was one of the few people in my family to go to college I didn?t know much about the college when I started out. I was really confused about the online system that is used by professors at my school to communicate with the students. However what I really wished I had known more about before I came to college is the financial aid system. My advice to new college students know about the online programs your school uses and learn as much about financial aid as possible.

What do you consider the worst thing about your school? Why?
The worst thing about Germanna Community College isn't exactly the school itself. I find that the only thing i cannot stand about attending this school, is being in the same classes with people who dont care about their education. College is not something you are forced to do, it is an option. It's for your own benefit. If you are going to come to class and waste not only your time, but your professor and classmates time as well, then save your money and stay home.
