Are you in a college? Are you going to college? if so, which one?

Just thought it would be insightful to see how many people are more prepared than I am, and maybe give me some advice

Still in highschool. I'm planning to apply for Bachelor of Science at the University of Melbourne, or if I get the marks Bachelor of Biomedicine. I don't know specifically what I want to do, but it lies somewhere around that field. Maybe biomedical engineering.

In the UK "college" is where you are from 16 to 18, essentially being an extension of secondary school. I'll assume you're talking about your equivalent of an undergrad course at university, in which case I'm at the University of Southampton.

At the moment, I'm doing an essay on the effects of chemicals on dreams, under a lecturer who is the leading expert of Neuropsychology in Victoria. So yeah, having a good time for now.

I went for a little over a year before dropping out. I was wasting my time.

You want advice? High school probably didn't prepare you for anything. I never took notes, never studied, never applied myself, did everything at the last minute and still passed with mostly A's and B's. Don't expect to get away with that in college.

I'm a Junior in High School right now, but I already have plans for college (i.e. major, which colleges I would like to go to, etc.)

I also plan to have sex with a shitload of dudes.

I give props, When I was applying to Pratt, they wanted three extra essays, and, like, at least a 3.0 GPA if you were going for architecture
