Just curious...

<p>All of you have probably gone through the hectic first half of senior year that involves applying to schools/scholarships/financial aid. Does it get any better from here? I work hard, but I'm more of a mellow guy, and these past few months have been miserable just because I've felt as if I'm obligated to do so much work with little rewards (at least until I hit 'submit'). Is the college workload comparable to this? lol...</p>

<p>depends what you study...but overall, I would say that the workload is just "different"... it should more interesting, but don't expect it to be easier if you're putting your all into it (and remember: you only get out what you put in!)</p>

<p>From here, the workload is meaningful. Thus, better.</p>

<p>I find college to be infinitely better than high school. But, I went to a crappy high school and (although I pretty much got straight A's) I never felt challenged or anything, and I actually usually like the fact that classes are "harder" in college. Really, they're just entirely different: professors don't pester you to hand things in, on time or even at all, and you are left to your own devices most of the time. You usually aren't required to go to class, and there's ALOT of reading in some courses (history, world lit, etc). But if you are in a major that you truly enjoy and like, you should do fine. If you like it, even if it's "hard", it shouldn't be too hard for you.</p>

<p>The workload will likely be high, but as mentioned you will feel like your actually accomplishing something. If you enjoy learning new things then all the hard work will feel worth it.</p>

<p>In college you get to choose what work you do, so you won't be doing much work you find pointless. There's always boring work that you're required to do, but in college there's also always a place to find relief. You have friends and activities and other stress-relief all around you. And you have a lot more time to get work done (though it doesn't seem that way!)</p>
