Talking High School vs. College

Which is better?

I say college. I had the most fun within the last year than I did in all four years in high school school together.

College, hands down. Where else can you schedule all your classes to be at 4:30 in the afternoon so you can party till 4 in the morning?

Amen! I loved to get that full day of, uh, studying in, hence the late afternoon classes. Oh, OK! I'm lying...

College is much better than high school. Than again, like high school college is getting old. I am ready to move on but I still have a year left. Can't wait to make the big buck.

College is great! I've only got a year left, and I'm already upset about leaving!

At least I'll have 3 years of law school to delay reality some.

But still, college has been the best part of my life.

College was SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO much better than high school. It was refreshing to not have people judge me because of the tacky pants I wore in seventh grade, and (although I love my parents with all my heart) to not have to hear "oh, you're Dad 33/Mom 33's daughter!" for 4 years. (People from small towns will understand that one.)

I experienced less stress in my hardest semester of college (I took extra classes, was a Resident Counselor, was active in my sorority, AND did other stuff) than I did in all four years of high school. I did the IB mess in HS, and it was the most stressful, competitive thing I've ever dealt with in my life (and I go to a so-called "hard" college). My classmates (40 of them, some of which I had gone to school with since kindergarten!) were extremely competitive when it came to class rank and SAT scores. I'm so glad I don't have to deal with that academic pressure now I'm in college.

Plus, there was a lot of social pressure. People were really status-conscious, and that would add a lot of stress (I'm talking about kids who would turn down a really good school and go to a local school so their parents would buy them a new car). I'm so glad I'm away from all that mess.

Cool

I had so much fun in high school!! Maby it was because I went to such a small school, and I was very involved, but I would not trade my high school experience for the world.
Now that I am in college I feel more grown up, and mature. College has proved to be even more fun than high school at times, and I really like living out of the house during the school year.
Over all, I would say that they are both equal for me. I do have 3 more years of college left, so maby my opinion will change more towards college in the future, we'll see what happens!!
