<p>I think that most undergrads are lazy, but some are highly motivated and dedicated to their studies.</p>
<p>The undergrads I knew who partied 24/7 have already been forced to drop out. I’m a rising junior.</p>
<p>I think most students balance it somewhat. If you party 24/7, there’s really no way to get school work done.</p>
<p>I’ve never really met either honestly. There are certainly some students that party more than they study, and other students that study more than they party…but most students have some kind of mix of the two. Even the students that aren’t into the party scene still usually make at least some time for socializing and leisure activities.</p>
<p>Personally, I tend to spend a lot more time studying than I do socializing. But I still make sure to get out and do something fun at least once or twice a week.</p>
<p>You can’t party 24/7 and expect not to fail. I have met many people for whom a social life is impossible, but these tend to be single parents who juggle 40 hr a week jobs, raising children, and going to classes.</p>
<p>Most of my fellow undergraduate friends work and study a lot but also make some time for social activities. Then again, most of my friends enjoy their schoolwork, and a lot of it is collaborative, so the social aspect mixes in a little. It’s not so black and white where one day is complete drudgery and another is reckless partying, although I know some people with that kind of schedule. They’re usually still just as motivated and successful though, and put schoolwork/career goals first. </p>
<p>I don’t think most undergrads at my school are lazy at all. We just know that all work and no play makes Jack a buzzkill.</p>
<p>I’ve never met either, but being that I go to a really nerdy school, I’ve met more studiers than partiers. </p>
<p>If you’re going to party, you should aim for a good balance between the two- the ones who don’t understand this and party all the time end up having to leave. I think most people at the college level understand that this is different from high school. There’s no one mandating that you stay.</p>
<p>I think that is a pretty negative stereotype of college students.
I have met people who are only interested in partying and did nothing else and they were mostly Freshmen. I think it is just a phase since its their first year being independent. By the beginning of sophomore year, people really start getting their head screwed on right and find a good balance between partying and studying that suits them.</p>
<p>The ones that don’t usually don’t last.</p>
<p>I don’t think people do that. People do need sleep you know.</p>
<p>Neither. Most undergrads strike a balance. Those who party too much are weeded out early on.</p>
<p>I am an engineering student and hang around with mostly engineering students and we tend to be closer to the study 24/7 edge of the scale. We don’t literally study 24/7, but much more than the average student does. That being said, I have never met students who party 24/7 either. Most students have enough common sense to know that they are paying to go to school, so they should take it seriously by doing their work. Balance is key.</p>
<p>I doubt very many people do either. I’m not planning to be a big partier, but I still won’t study all the time. Just like I was in high school.</p>
<p>I’ve met one or two students who were study bugs, 21 units a semester with a part time job and sorority commitments. </p>
<p>Most students that are lazy excel by picking an easy major</p>
<p>Neither. There is no successful, balanced student who parties OR studies 24/7. Your priority should be to perform well in school but you should have fun and be with friends or you’ll burn out.</p>
<p>I don’t really know many who are on either extreme, but most lean towards doing work most of the time and partying/doing fun things on weekends or a few nights per week. </p>
<p>Then again, I go to a nerdy school, so what do I know. :)</p>
<p>I party 24/7 and I really hate studying.</p>
