And the class I\u2019m not doing the best in is sociology because I haven\u2019t spent much time studying for, I need to focus on understanding the information we are learning, the just trying to memorize it. I\u2019m going to try to find real life problems to apply to the information we are learning in class.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Coming into college I thought that attendance wasn\u2019t a big deal, but it is, and the student attending college would be more mature and there wasn\u2019t going to be drama, but I was also wrong on that too. College isn\u2019t really owning up to my opinion on the \u201ccollege experience\u201d I was hoping for. I think the biggest surprise to me was that people aren\u2019t major and focused on school they are more focused on making friends and those people liking them than studying. Another big surprise to me would have to be the amount of studying there is involved in the amount of work the classes give you. I personally think the toughest think for not living on campus is the parking, there isn\u2019t enough parking near campus, because Old Dominion has a lot of commuters, which causes so many people getting to school at the same time, this means I must come to school an hour before my first class to just get a parking spot. The easiest thing to overcome the cost of tuition because it doesn\u2019t cost as much as living on campus. I learned more information about the classes I have to take and how to apply and what it takes to get into the program I recently just contacted the direct of the Nuclear Medicine program and we talked about her studying technique and about the job opportunities in that field of practice. The only thing that has changed is the passion that I have for the program and how it will impact the community. I am interest in learning more about getting about human services and help more with the community. I\u2019ve made some good friends who are good in the classes I\u2019m struggling in and help and teaching me different study habits, but I\u2019ve also learned more that people aren\u2019t who they say they are and haven\u2019t changed from the high school pettiness. The club I am interested in is the Global Medicine Brigade, when I was in high school I went on a lot of missions trips and wanted to help people who couldn\u2019t get the help they needed and this club gives me the opportunity to help people<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The class I\u2019m doing the best in is college algebra and I\u2019m also doing well in Chemistry; those are the classes that I spend most of my time studying for because those were my classes that I had a feeling I was going to struggle with.
