Hey, for any of those college-students / college graduates. I'm going to be going off to college in August-September. Any tips 你 can give me?

I will likely end up in either 大学 of California Davis for Animal Science 或者 大学 of California San Diego for Biochemistry. Plus we will be trying to get me my own dorm - if not I will be sharing with one person tops.

Do your best, but don't overwork yourself for your own 或者 other peoples expectations.

Get a bike.

Have fun, obviously.


If 你 get a roommate...I would say either start leaving cryptic messages written in the Gnommish language for him/her 或者 just buy a TON of rubber ducks wholesale online.

I use Trello to keep track of due dates. Yup, just keep a site like that around so 你 will never be late for homework. I recommend moving due dates earlier so 你 don't procrastinate. If 你 need help using that site, I can help.

First off, congrats! And have fun! Sounds like the culmination of a few years of hard work. Both options seem fantastic. BIOCHEMISTRY <3

So I'm in my fourth 年 and still have two 或者 so to go lel.

Use first 年 to establish a good base: not just academically, but particularly socially and in terms of extracurricular activities. GET INVOLVED IN 俱乐部 FROM FIRST YEAR. They provide a great array of people interested in the same shit as you, and I really regret not meeting 更多 people in first 年 coz now it's much harder and people are far less willing to socialise. It also it looks great on your CV to have been in a committee, and it's hard to do so if 你 didn't get your foot in the door in first year.

Relevantly: do extracurricular, part-time work and volunteering from now. I've just realised I don't have enough of that bc I focus too much on marks and I'm fuuucked. Meant to be applying for internships 下一个 年 and it's like "lol what do I put on my CV and say in interviews considering I'm such a boring person". Defs keep up your 音乐 - employers 爱情 shit 展示 long-term commitment. Seriously, start thinking about CV stuff from now. The job market is absolutely fucking brutal. You're graduating with thousands and thousands of other people.

So yeah, I can't stress enough how important social and activities stuff is for first year. But buckle the fuck up academically for 秒 year, coz in my experience, 秒 年 subjects are a massive step up. Just be wary of that from now.

Set up a good timetable. Was super careless in allocating myself in first 年 and paid the price with a 5-days-a-week nightmare and some days going from 9am to 6pm with a massive gap in the middle of the day.

Log everything in 谷歌 calendar.

At my uni, no one cares if 你 attend a different stream to the one you're allocated to. Find the best lecturer and feel free to go to theirs.

Handwrite lecture notes in science - gives way 更多 freedom for diagrams, symbols and shorthand. Typing doesn't work in science. My fav method is printing out the lecture slides (4 per page) and annotating.

Have a system of organisation for where 你 put your notes/handouts after coming 首页 from uni, coz honestly 你 don't wanna be sorting through that in swotvac pre-exam period and coming to the horrible realisation that you're missing shit (speaking from experience here)

I reckon you're a smart cookie, so this is applicable: realise that everyone else in the cohort is much 更多 academically on par with 你 than in high school. 你 don't have the "buffer" of people who are less able. If 你 don't try and just wing it, 你 won't do "meh" anymore, you'll probs do badly. Less importance lies in natural ability now that everyone has a 更多 similar level of it.

Don't be me and pull all-nighters for assignments. Fucks 你 up for the rest of the week.

Cont. below (fanpop word urgh)

Get a friend group that's happy to share notes and work together in assignments. Makes a world of difference. But 由 god, don't get caught plagiarising 或者 colluding. They will absolutely drill this into you, but academic misconduct gets a massive black mark 下一个 to your name that other institutions and employers can see. I sound like a uni shill, but yeah don't underestimate the danger.

Ooooh veterinary science is so cool. Well I over-emphasised the career and CV stuff then (thanks wanta, yeah it's basically a resume lol), coz job prospects are better for that sort of clinical work than for the shitty things I'm graduating in. 你 chose very well :') And sounds like you're gonna be doing something 你 care about. And band. These are the ingredients of a good time at uni.

Sorry I couldn't give 更多 about social and campus life, not many people actually live on college here. But yeah basically be social in first 年 and 加入 the clubs. OH also 你 can raise your hand in lectures but 哈哈 don't say something stupid. I know 你 and know 你 won't, but 哈哈 fun anecdote: still remember the face of one chick in my cohort from three years ago. We were in a public health lecture and the lecturer was like "An example of a public initiative: encouraging people to take the stairs instead of the elevators" and this chick raised her hand to say, entirely seriously and indignantly, "yeah, but what about DISABLED PEOPLE who can't use the stairs?". Which was bad enough, but then she proceeded to dig even 更多 of a hole for herself 由 having a back-and-forth with the lecturer for the 下一个 5 minutes. Cringe.

CONGRATULATIONS, RIKU! THOSE ARE GREAT NEWS!

What I can say myself is just continue being yourself. Being the highly devotional Person 你 are, I doubt 你 will encounter much of a difference compared to now. Make sure 你 choose the path that satisfies 你 the most. I can tell that 你 will 爱情 what 你 are doing based on these two options. Pour your passion into them and 你 will succeed.

Now, being 更多 practical, I would suggest making a daily schedule and sticking with it. Procrastination will not do much good. Organize your Time. About the possibility of sharing a room with another person, regardless of the outcome, see it as a challenge that lies ahead. I believe it might really benefit 你 actually. Be open to the changes that surround 你 and 你 will develop even further.

Honestly, I can't really think of much else to say. In overall, do what 你 have always been doing. Adapt, stay focused on your goal and 你 are going to rock things XD

I wish 你 the best. Have fun !!!!

If 你 have an assignment due online at midnight, for the 爱情 of God do NOT wait until 11:56pm to turn it in. The internet might decide to slow down 或者 stop working between that time and 12am, and 由 that time you're screwed. (Based on past experience).

Remember to stay healthy. Don't binge on 破烂, 垃圾 食物 and lie in 床, 床上 all 日 instead of getting out and exercising just because there's no one to tell 你 not to do those things.

XD I learned that in highschool. Not from my own experience but from other friends. They are much 更多 forgiving in highschool I imagine so I learned it the easy way - through other people's mistakes and when there were few consequences XD
