What was more fun, senior year of high school or freshman year of college?

<p>My freshman year will really have to suck for it to be worse than senior year. Didn’t like my high school too much. (Teachers were great, but my school itself sucked)</p>

<p>Freshman year, hands down.</p>

<p>While I thought that my senior year was awesome at the time -my friends and I did a lot of really cool stuff together, I went to every formal dance and finally had a date for half of them, and had one of the awesomest math classes ever (Multi-V Calc, with alternate fridays off for “test review” aka class gelato trips), it just wasn’t the same. </p>

<p>I got to meet a lot of awesome new people, both who were much more similar to me than any of my high school friends (smart, nerdy, and same faith), but also people who were quite willing to express their differences, exhibit their crazy habits,etc. The traditions here are really wacky, but much more awesome than the silly bonding activities in high school. Even at my smallish school, the clubs I can join and events I can attend are way more diverse and plentiful than in HS. The stress was about equal to senior year, but freshman year was still way more awesome</p>

<p>Senior year!</p>

<p>I got to do so much and had a couple of amazing teachers and classes. Just the whole atmosphere around my friends was great, and I really, really miss them :frowning: My high school wasn’t the greatest ever, but I miss it sometimes. Some of the people at college drive me crazy sometimes, and while they’re very nice they can be very close minded. You didn’t see that a lot in high school.</p>

<p>…you’re joking, right?</p>

<p>He very well might not be. Many of the people at my school consider themselves to be “open-minded,” but would never listen to a word spoken by anyone who was not radically liberal. “open-minded” means willing to listen to and carefully consider other people’s ideas without immediately criticizing them based on your own beliefs, not being super willing to accept anything that isn’t conservative (aka being so open-minded that your brain falls out). That said, most of the people in my school are open-minded in the good sense.</p>

<p>If you go to a Christian college or certain community colleges, you’ll probably run into a lot of close-minded ignorant people too. I hate hearing that my friends at christian colleges aren’t allowed to ballroom dance, and I love watching the expressions on their faces when I tell them that my school just authorized co-ed rooms :P</p>

<p>Neither…</p>

<p>I think senior year by a slim margin. It’s not that I didn’t like freshman year. It was a whole new experience living on my own and adjusting to the college life. But I mean it could’ve been a little bit better during the year if I wasn’t too swamped with classes and homework (then again I’m an engineer so I guess I’m kinda screwed the next four years anyway). But senior year, aside from the college apps and the classes, was pretty amazing to me because of the people there. There was just that certain comfort I had that I’m still looking for in college. I think the biggest turnoff for college so far are the parties because people are always looking to get drunk off their @$$es and it seems like people can’t have fun unless there’s alcohol involved. But I still liked my freshman year a lot.</p>

<p>freshman year! ahh, 4 hours away and plenty of freedom!</p>

<p>Senior year of high school…because the class trip was to Machu Pichu. :D</p>
