Good? A large percentage of my friends dropped out of college freshmen or sophomore year because they were there to have fun and were not focused on school.
Hell I wasnt that focused on school because there was a gym, an event every night, and four or five extra curricular to choose from. The most focused I ever was in college was in a couple community college classes I took over a summer. I wasnt friends with the people in those classes, I showed up a couple times a week, did the work, and went home. I wish all colleges were like that.
