This has been the worst three years ofQuite BrightPsychology
This has been the worst three years of my life. I got accepted into a program called the art scholars program and I was told that I would have many, many opportunities to go to places abroad, and cool shows for fairly cheap. However, I fought and fought and fought to only get to go on two trips (in the united states). I also (being a very well spoken and social person) made only one or two friends here. If you don't drink, you don't make friends. In high school, I always made friends with guys because well, lets face it, the average high school girl is a *****, but here, two of my three friends are girls, and one is a guy...but he's gay. Most of the men (boys) when they get here go testosterone crazy and only care about one thing. Besides all that, the work is pointless, and you don't learn a lot (pointless work like in high school). My family connections have gotten worse and whenever I go home (although I feel relieved) I get treated like a stranger. So to wrap this up, my advice is to go to a school near home for your undergrad.

Question
THE Ohio State University is one the bestQuite BrightPolitical Science
THE Ohio State University is one the best schools in the nation! I love this school to my heart and am glad that I attained my first degree there. The campus is beautiful and provides students with different resources to succeed in your academic career (free tutoring center, personal professors, writing centers, etc.) and great facilities for recreation (RPAC, JOs, Volleyball Courts, the Arc). The football games are amazing, the parties great, and the student body is definitely includes quite a bit of attractive people. All the students, for the most part, have a work hard, play hard mentality and are really friendly. This school is well-known and has REALLY GOOD alumni network. If you get in, GO!

Question
There are pros and cons of this university.Super BrilliantPsychology
There are pros and cons of this university.The pros of the school is its beautifully landscaped, nice library, plenty of study areas, easy to get a job, they give good financial aid packages, everyone is mostly nice, and a free bus pass. The cons of this college are the internet is horribly slow, the advisors are a little mediocre when it comes to classes, because I don't think they know what there doing, don't expect math help, also the math teachers are not teachers but, students in grad school which sucks, two you get alot of proffesors that have been in the field s their teaching, however that doesn't make someone a good professor, exams are hard in almost every major, the teachers will give you information to study and none of it will be on the exam, also if you are a transfer student run, they don't calculate any transfer credits into your gpa, they only calculate their classes into it,. All schools aren't like this at a undergraduate level they teach the courses at a grad level style, this school could lower your chances to get into grad school. So avoid it if you can.
