I want to do a lot in college! Is it possible to enroll myself intramural sports, major in biology/neurosciences, minor in Chinese literature/culture, be part of Greek life and also work/part-time job?
I'm super excited for college, but because of the major I want to pursue, I'm not sure if I'll have enough time to do everything! Is college life mainly studying? I've heard from multiple people that college is going to be the best time of your life, but they also say that high school does NOTHING to prepare you for college. I'm super stressed about what life would be like, and if I would be okay balancing everything? And one of my other questions would be: would you recommend me drop an activity...or? I'm not enrolled in college yet, but am applying soon, so I have no idea on what life would be like on campus! #studentlife #college #science #stress
