What are some unexpected challenges that you found when attending a college out of state I will be attending a college 13 hours away, and I want to be as prepared as possible. What are some items you believe are important as a first-time college student living away from home? #Spring26?

Would it be better to live in a city or somewhere quieter/ more rural for a job in biology?

I am only 16 but I am probably one of the least social people ever. I want to work in a lab doing biological research (partially for the lack of social interaction, but mostly for my love of biology). I love the idea of living in a small rural town where everyone knows everyone but I wonder if that will hinder my job opportunities. I hate the idea of living in a city because it is 1) way more expensive, 2) I have been in situations where I have been shoulder to shoulder with randos and I despise physical contact most of the time and 3) I can just imagine myself living in a little cottage in a tiny town and curling up with a good book with my 2 dogs after a long muddy walk.
