College Years: Is it Easier than High School? (My Point of View)

As you know college is one of the most important years of any person's lifetime. For me I felt a true aura as I entered college back in 2009. Sure I'm a junior now and not yet a graduate however I feel more enlightened and passionate about my future career.  In high school however, I was struggling and personally didn't feel to confident in myself as everyone said "College is harder now than this place!"

I personally disagree with people when they say college is hard. It is common for me to have more free time and this point I usually have a relaxation day and do a little classwork early for more stress relief.  I also have more opportunities to put myself on the map for I have more involvement in the media clubs at Plymouth than at my high school.  In high school everyone knew I had more spirit than the head cheerleader, but they did not know how television and media were of my interest.  College to me is easier for this provided more knowledge to write proper essays and discovered how education before college was difficult to follow for I had an IEP with reading and writing.  I never had a care in the world to read books and that resulted under 2 reading levels in English class and using a lot of fragments in sentences.

There are many people who would agree as there are people who disagree. Many believe college is hard because they excelled in high school and the assignments were too easy. Many can also think about time management and how there are lots of opportunities within a short time span.  I can easily say this is the best time to finally educate and actually learn about morality in any subject for not only my personality evolved from a shy freshman to a dedicated junior who is truly more confident in herself academically and socially.
