Hi! I'm just wondering if anyone on WP has ever done PSEO. I would love some advice about classes and getting work done if anyone is familiar with the PSEO program.
I will be a senior in high school who is going to a large university for PSEO in the fall. I already know that I will have some classes only a few times a week, and I will have to plan my time accordingly. I think I have good enough time management skills due to the fact that I survived 5 AP classes while participating in extra curricular activities. I finished all my homework and got straight As for on my report card this semester. How are lectures different than learning in high school? Will big classes make learning more difficult? I'm already an independent learning who can read things out of textbook and understand the material. Will I do fine in the class as long as I understand the class material?
Also, how is college different socially from high school? I have a few friends going into the PSEO program so I'm not completely alone. I hope to meet some other students as well. I know there are events held for PSEO students and one of my friends agreed to go to them with me. What is the best way to meet other students? I am hoping to socialize through lab and discussion groups. I am an Aspie, so I have a little bit of anxiety when meeting people. Once I get over this fear, I can keep up a conversation just fine. I hope I can find some people with the same interests as me at the uni. The school has 30,000 people, which means I should be able to find some friends if I make an effort to socialize.
I'm so excited and stressed about PSEO at the same time. I have no idea what to expect from it. It's a new expereince, and only time will tell what it's all about. If anyone has been a part of the PSEO program, what did you think of it? Any tips for a soon to be uni student?
