Top colleges, lowest stress levels?

<p>As the title describes, what colleges are well-known, but also have a lower stress level/ not an overwhelming course load. Just curious if there even is such a thing, ha.</p>

<p>Doesn't exist. There is no way a college could be low stress (aka easy) and still be considered a top school. Or decent. I might even question the school's reputability.</p>

<p>Oddly enough, there was a list on MSNBC a couple days ago that had "the top 10 colleges with the lowest/highest stressed students."
I'll try to find the link.</p>

<p>Brown maybe? (P/F thing, I dunno)</p>

<p>My mistake: It was 10 colleges where students rarely study, and 10 colleges with the happiest students. Somehow, I remembered it as least stressed students.</p>

<p>Just take all your courses with easy professors. You may never get to take the classes you are the most interested in, but you can keep your work load low. Or take a reduced course load.</p>

<p>Low stress doesn't necessarily equate with easy. It's called time management and healthy living.</p>

<p>^Very true...I'm never stressed...but this place is hard as hell, my workload just keeps getting more ridiculous each semester.</p>

<h2>Just take all your courses with easy professors. You may never get to take the classes you are the most interested in, but you can keep your work load low. Or take a reduced course load.</h2>

<p>Could you really do that for most of your classes? And get away with only taking a few hard classes the the hard profs.</p>

<p>I don't want the easy way anyway.. i'd just want it balanced.. you know, so i get 8 hours of sleep a night, and still have time on weekends to party/ or just relax and have fun. And like an hour or two after school to just hang with friends or in my dorm and read a book.</p>

<p>lol, I can't even get 8 hours of sleep in H.S. I personally won't be able to get 8 in college.</p>

<p>neither can i.. but that's just because of my time management haha... I'm saying if it is possible to make time to get decent amounts of sleep ha.</p>

<p>Same here, I suck at time management and I know if I don't put it together, I'll get screwed in college, lol.</p>

<p>The stress levels aren't always low exactly, but the students at Yale are generally laid back compared to other schools of its caliber.</p>

<p>Hawaiiboy15: i think our first step is just getting our work done with.. for example, i should be doing my Calculus homework right now. Peace! :]</p>

<p>actually most ivy league schools are relatively stress free. Whether it be from insane grade inflation to there being no F's on transcripts. </p>

<p>If you are at least decently intelligent, any college no matter how its ranked is not that bad. Once you get out and get a job, college is like a 4-5 year vacation before the rest of your life is gone.</p>

<p>^^ That's so depressing..</p>

<p>its the truth. All of these people actually think their lives will amout to something, then you graduate and reality sets in. You just another joe blow doing 9-5 at a job you might have liked for the first 5 years, but now you relize you will be doing the same thing for the next 25 or so years. Life starts to suck. Yo wake up at 6am to get to work by 8 or 9am. You get home at 6 or 7 pm and are exausted, so you order a pizza and watch tv for a few hours and go to sleep. You then create a cycle and you do this for the next 25 years. You only go to work everyday so the weekends come faster. Its all quite pathetic.</p>
