<li>Is Brandeis a nerdy school? I have heard someone told me it’s very stressful if I study in Brandeis. What about your workload?</li>
<li>Are you happy at Brandeis? Anything interesting in your college experience?</li>
</ol>
<p>Just want to hear some Brandeis student’s feeling. Thank you so much for your reply!!! Hope to meet you at Brandeis!!! : ></p>
<p>1) Define “nerdy” ? Is it a big state school with a football team and a very large greek life? No. Is the most social place the library? No. Do students take academics seriously here? Yes. Is this school stressful? Farrr from it. The workload varies on the courses you choose to take. But specifically the intro and freshmen courses are not heavy course loads or stressful. Is there a very active social life? Yes. </p>
<p>2) I’m extremely happy with Brandeis. This school fits any niche, and the days that you want to be hidden in silence in the library you can be. And the days that you want to be very social and go out, you can. When my roommate first came here, he did not enjoy Brandeis, and he left almost every weekend, he was a classical suitcase student. He would complain that Brandeis was not fun, and that’s because he blatantly was not attached or involved at all at Brandeis. At the end of last semester, and since the start of this semester he has grown to really really enjoy Brandeis, because he started staying on campus and getting involved. So if you come in with a negative attitude, you’ll get a negative experience. If you come in with an open attitude, you’ll get so much out of this school. The people are extremely friendly, very social, and very out-there/out-going.</p>
