Did you enjoy college more than high school?

Don't get me wrong; high school is pretty fun, but taking classes that I don't find necessary for my intended career really ticks me off. I'm hoping in college that more personalized classes will mean I'll be more interested. Do you think this will be the case?

0	I go to community college so it's a lot of the same idiots from high school, mixed with local idiots from surrounding schools so so far they both hurt about equally. answered Sep 19 '11 at 22:04 HWLights92 631●39●43●60

I'm with you there. I just started high school and I find it extremely frustrating that I just spent 30 minutes on "health" homework. Also, I don't care about Spanish or Biology. Even though they're "good for your education"

You're going to need Spanish one day or another, the Spanish language is rising and in this day and age that there are "more latinos in America than Canadians in Canada", it doesn't hurt.

Actually no, theres more Mandarin and French speakers in North America than Spanish. To survive in this modern world u'l have to learn mandarin, german, italian, french over Spanish.

I actually learned Italian and it's pretty simple, and I know a few of Japanese :)

Be honest, how many German, Italian and French people have you met in Puerto Rico or in the United States?

I don't know how relevant this is, as I started attending college 38 years ago, coming from a bigoted, blue collar suburb of Detroit. I was one of the non-popular intelligent students who never got invited to parties. Once I got to college, intelligence was prized and I wasn't the freak bookworm.

But more importantly than my ego and minor snubs I received in high school, the exposure to different ideas and backgrounds I wouldn't trade for anything. All ideas are fodder for growth, and intelligent, caring people will blossom in those lucky circumstances.

0	I enjoyed more College than High School, More liberty, independence and it made me mature more, though the classes are tougher than in High School. answered Oct 10 '11 at 11:04 Patxi 12.6k●206●272●386

0	Hmmm...College was more freedom and a learned more real world knowledge. So as much fun as I had in HS with my friends, I enjoyed the college experience more. Good question! answered Oct 10 '11 at 12:14 Steven Hibbs 4.6k●87●106●156
