<p>Hey everyone. I’ve been taking courses at Penn through the Young Scholars Program since eleventh grade, and I wanted to know if anyone else on here is in that program too. I’m taking Intro to Philosophy this upcoming semester and I’m scared that I will not know anybody in the class (I got lucky the last times and took classes with people from my school). If anyone is taking that class or this course in general it would be cool to get to know some people. Or if anyone has taken Philosophy and has any tips or opinions about it that would be good to know.</p>
<p>Are you afraid of making new friends? Going into a class where you do not know anyone is scary, I have to admit I experienced that when I took college classes outside of my high school. I actually really like going into a place where nobody knows me, feels like starting high school all over again.</p>
<p>I'm not scared of making new friends, it's just that it's not really easy to make friends with college students when you're in high school especially when nobody in the class talks to each other. I was just hoping that a kid my age would be in my class and I would have somebody to talk to and discuss the class with.</p>
