Essay / Compare and contrast high school and college
I enjoy being a student more than a high school student. Since I have been in college, I have noticed that students have more freedom in middle school than in high school. Choices such as note-taking, environment, or class selection are just a few examples of how college is less restrictive than high school. Because of educational freedom and having more control over my education, I find being a student more enjoyable than being a high school student. In high school, the courses students take seem easy. They seem easy because when a person is in high school they can just erase the effects. For example, if someone is not paying attention and doing nothing for the entire course, they can copy someone else's notes and still learn the material because they have this course five days a day. week. Another reason why high school classes make it seem easy is that a person can miss school/class without being penalized, and most of the time the teacher reviews the material that the student The student missed. “High school is compulsory and free while college is voluntary and expensive.” (Information for high school students) On the other hand, in college, the courses seem hard. A student cannot simply skip a course. Well, he can, but he will suffer for it in the long run. For example, if someone attends a class but does not intend to pay attention, they will suffer from not paying attention and wish they had paid attention, because most of the time teachers do not review . any of the courses or materials before a test. Like in high school, a student can copy notes from another student, this can be slightly helpful, but not as much as if they had been in class and paying attention. College classes are also difficult because a person can't really miss a class. In order to know what is happening and what homework will be due, a student must attend all classes if possible because they do not have the same class five days a week. In college, it's two or three days a week and that's it. If someone misses a class, it is very difficult to make up for what they missed..
