My advice is two fold. 1) Have fun, you think 4 years of college is long...but trust me, it'll go by in a blink of an eye. 2) Start thinking ahead from day on

My advice is two fold.
1) Have fun, you think 4 years of college is long...but trust me, it'll go by in a blink of an eye.
2) Start thinking ahead from day one.
GPA: don't slack off early on, early on all your classes are bullshit, you might think they are hard, but you have no idea. Get those easy As early on.
Startup/Projects: start working on them from day one. Even if it goes slow, you'll be much better of. Startups start off very slowly, so college is the best time to start, since you can have the 4 years for it to grow big enough, while you have no real expenses.
- JimmyL 17y agoRe: GPA, take As when you can get them. Doesn't matter if the course is bullshit - an A is an A, and your GPA is cumulative. This is especially important in first-year, as your performance therein haunts you for the rest of your time at school. If you went to a moderately good high school, most of first year should be review for you. Learn the new parts, ace the old parts, and finish first year with a 3.7+ GPA and you're set for the rest of your time there.
- vaksel 17y agoI'd aim for a 4.0 for that first yet. If you keep the same studying habits you had in high school getting As in those early courses is a breeze.
