Why do some kids expect college to be better than highschool?

What makes you hate your highschool?

Everything. It was like a prison.</p>

<p>Also, the other kids p*ssed me off, the teachers gave too much homework, my parents yelled at me constantly about grades, and I had to wake up early every fcking morning.</p>

<p>I have loved high school...best 4 years of my life so far (I'm a senior).</p>

<p>The thing I'm most looking forward to about college, though, is having the freedom to take what I WANT to (aside from GEs), not what some administration people are telling me I HAVE to.</p>

<p>Also, the ability to not take a class before 8 AM. :) (I'm a morning person, but no one really LIKES waking up before 7.)</p>

<p>And probably the biggest thing...NO MORE UNIFORMS. I'm so sick of them. >_<</p>

<p>"Can you share your bad experience in highschool?
What makes you hate your highschool?"</p>

<p>I liked high school. Wasn't perfect, but it was still really good.</p>

<p>College is better.</p>

<p>My high school sucked. It was ridiculously cliquey, I got picked on by jerks from 7th grade to 11th grade with some crappy occurrences in senior year as well, it was in a really small town where everyone was super Southern Baptist and hardcore Republican (that's like the opposite of me), had no AP classes (and thus I was bored as hell most of the time in the easy classes offered), had like NO selection of electives that were actually worthwhile, and didn't really prepare me for college at all. Exceptions: I had two good math teachers, one for 9th and 10th and the other for 11th and 12th, and so I was not "left behind" in that area at least, and my art teacher was also really awesome. My art teacher is the only teacher I really liked and miss, because she was just an awesome lady (had both her hands amputated and can still draw better than me with her prosthetics). I don't miss anyone I went to high school, except my friend Amy who I haven't seen in like a year. I would miss my best friend Jess if she didn't live two blocks away from me lol, but we hang out like at least once a month usually more.</p>

<p>Freedom is instinctive. :D College=Freedom (at least in comparison to HS)</p>

<p>College is complete freedom as long as you have money :P</p>

<p>haha...that's very true.</p>

<p>Maybe what I miss is not highschool,what I miss is my youth.lol
The reason I want to go back to highschool is simply that I want to be young again.</p>

<p>At least high school didn't put me thousands of more dollars into debt each semester.</p>

<p>Yeah, highschool is a worthless free degree, its free for a reason.</p>

<p>senior year is the only good year of high school. High school blows for the most part, especially mine.</p>

<p>Like others have said, I loved highschool. I loved my school, I loved my friends.</p>

<p>But college is even better.</p>

<p>College was definitely better than high school, mostly because of the freedom.</p>

<p>high school was okay, but college sucked butt for me. it was too big of a transition, and i let other people decide my destination for college. thus i ended up miserable at a place i didn't want to go to, with a major i didn't like, with friends i never made, and i still feel like i'm in high school since i see the same damn people around. maybe grad school can be better. ><</p>

<p>lol, someone's gotta learn to make their own decisions :D</p>

<p>Ugh. High school has been a kind of HELL for me! I've always been picked on because i'm not an anorexic bimbo that sleeps with everyone. I actually put myself into my schooling instead of throwing myself at boys. I've got 16 days of high school left, and i cannot wait for it to be over. I have a few acquaintances that i'll miss, but hey... email. Know what i mean?</p>

<p>I don't fit in because i don't fit the criteria in my school to be 'cool' </p>

<p>:)</p>

<p>college is better for sex at least</p>

<p>Whoa, AJH2008, slutty aneroxic bimbo? sounds like my kind of woman...</p>

<p>I sure as hell hope that college is better than high school, I mean I have lots of great friends and everything, but the freedom and the ability to take classes that I want sounds wayyy better than highschool. Plus, if I go to Rutgers I'll be with lots of my friends and I'll have the freedoms of college...</p>

<p>HS was insanely good. College has been fun thus far (freshman year), but up until now HS has been better. Hopefully next year will make college top HS.</p>

<p>High school was fun, but university is way better. </p>

<p>Seriously, if you peak in high school, what are you going to do with the rest of your life?</p>
