What are my regrets from college?

- Not taking more risks like studying abroad, not enjoying myself more like going out during the week, and I regret not taking more classes I was actually interested in.


What did I learn from college?

- College does not teach you everything you need to know in the real world; such as budgeting, interviewing, how to negotiate and decline offers, and where and how to look for potential jobs. These are things a lot of students don't know how to do because our education system doesn't focus on interviewing, job searches and much more. I also learned how important it is to manage time effectively and how you need to be able to work with others, no matter how much you may disagree. Communication and writing skills are also crucial for your future. To sum things up, you have to work for everything you want to achieve, nothing comes easy. BUT, if you work hard you will get what you want- don't give up!!!


Advice for all college students:

- If you want good grades or lots of friends, you have to put in the time and effort to get these things. Take risks, study abroad, put yourself out of your comfort zone, keep an open mind, join as many organizations as you can while you have the opportunity, go to tutoring, take classes you actually have an interest for, not ones that are known for the "easy A". Read books, intern, diversify your settings, and one of my favorites- don't feel pressured into going out every night, but go out as much as you can!!!
