College Life for Dummies

Paper Summary:

This paper explains that making the grades and staying out of trouble should be every student's most important priorities. The author points out that learning what works best for you and making the best out of every downfall will get you where you want to be; but remember, the keyword is simply "study" because if you do not study, you do not make the grade, and that is the end. The paper concludes that, after admitting you surely do not need alcohol or drugs to have fun, and procrastination and loneliness are things that can be worked on, you will have more chances of succeeding, making your four years in college the best of your life, so far.

From the Paper:

"You find yourself doing something you never before thought possible; paying hundreds of dollars to spend hours in classes you cannot stand with teachers who would not exactly put you on their Christmas lists if their lives depended on it. Just imagine what your reaction would have been if someone had asked you to pay in order attend your least favorite class back in your public high school. Although Mom and Dad will not be around to make sure you take out the garbage and do your homework before going out, you will have to learn what it takes to excel in college."
