[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Did t everyone find college less stressful than high school. The work might be more challenging, but there is less pressure to do well when -- let's face it-- you don't have your parents on you everyday to do well so that you can get into a good college.[/quote] Well, not everyone's parents were "on them" in high school, and the pressure to do well for many kids is self-generated. My experience as a college psychololgist is that kids often bring their pressure-driven mindset to college with themfrom high school. Not all kids do,mind you, but many do. And then there's the pressure to do well to compete for internships, jobs after graduation and grad/professional schools. So no, not all kids find college less stressful than high school.[/quote]
