University Life

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم ..

السلام عليكم و رحمة الله و بركا ته.. 

       Throughout my observations, during college, what is usually assigned is courseworks and assignments which are continuous assessments throughout the semester. Unlike at school, college results is not 'wholely' depending on our final examination but are partially assessed by our assignments, quizzes, course works and final examination which usually gives the highest marks of all.

       Students do usually plagiarise since they feel they have insuffiecient time in which I do not really agree about the plagiarism. Well, as for me, it is better to observe and do it myself rather than to copy the whole thing. I do borrow my friends' assignments, but I do never copy everything and just submit them. To me, the attitude of that is very much irresponsible. 

       To work on assessments, you will either do them individually or in group. There might be obstacles to finish everything if the case is to do them in group. I do not mean group works are not good. For some group works, if you have irresponsible group members, then it will become a burden to you. My advice is if you are assigned to do something, you better do your own copy regardless of the tasks you are given in the group. 
   
       Why am I saying so? I had several experiences ding group works, where the member did the task last minute making everybody panic. Well, other than that, I had a friend going back to hometown without completing the task and asking the other members to finish them. Other, the member did not know how to do the task and remain silent until the moment we wanted to compile and giving such irrelevant excuses such as the computer broke down and such. 

      Peer pressure is also an issue when you live in college. Since you do not know with whom you are dealing with, so you have to be careful. Some people take advantage of you, asking you to complete their assignments, wants to come with you to class because you have a car or motorcycle, small matters and unexpectable. But well, since you live at people's place and do not have your family with you, so you have to adapt with the friends. Be good to everybody but not too good. Aleays remember that you are surviving to live in your studies so there must be jealousies, grudges and cheats. 

       Society is something you should join and enjoy with but not too much. Some society makes you become slaves, do this and that. And all you know, at the end of the semester, the society will never give you marks for your exams. Or in harsh words, they won't help you any better in your exams. Society makes you become more experienced, but all you have to do is contol and limit yourself to several, let us say 4 society activities per semester. That would make you maintain your social and your studies in the same time. 

      These are apart of the matters being like viruses or burdens which I did observed at college for three semesters i''ve been in. You can ask other more experienced ones about the lifes in college, maybe your elder sisters and brothers or your parents. There are so many spices about the students and lecturers, all are overwhelming, unexpectable, funny, fun, pitiful, and all in all could be something new and something u have heard about.
