[quote=Anonymous]I have been doing college visits with my son. I have noticed that the emphasis of all the materials the colleges send us - and 95% of the emphasis of the college tours - is "THIS COLLEGE IS FUN!" You will see students taking advantage of the amenities (the spa! the pool! the leafy quad!), hanging out together, being in clubs, etc. Actually working, writing papers, studying for tests, not so much. But it obviously can't be like that in reality. If you are doing science / math / engineering like I did, you will absolutely be spending lots of time in the library or your room studying. It will be a job. And most of the other students in your program will be like that, too. [/quote]
