I wish I had known that many of my professors did not speak english well and that they did not give partial credit for math. Also I wish i had know some more chemistry before attending a school that is entirely incapable of teaching the subject.

That college life is more than just being happy to be away from Mom and Dad. It involves being responsible enough to know how to prioritize your time between study and every other thing and still have a healthy balance

I was pretty well informed on most things actually-- academics, housing, extracurriculars, etc.

Samuel

I wish I had known that you essentially need a car to attend this school. Rutgers has its own system of buses which run frequently, however those are only good for going to class. If you want to go to the mall or the movies or the grocery store you are out of luck without a car.
