Comparison: School v/s University. My own experience.

My own experience at school is a special case, because I studied in a Waldorf School. A Waldorf School has a different teaching program, there are no marks, and it’s not recognized by the ministry of education. So, my comparison between school and University will be a bit more personal.

For me, studying at university has meant to get used to the habits of study and testing, because I never had a way of life as well. In the beginning was kind of difficult, but with the time, I get used to.
 
When I was at school, I had many time to do other things like read books, hang out with friends, paint, and a lot things more.  Now, I only do things for university and when I have a little time, I only want to rest.

Sometimes I think that I’m not learning at university, and I only study to pass the course, because I don’t have much time to understand what I’m doing. I am saturated with so many things, and I try to do all as fast we can. 

Maybe this thing happens too at traditional schools. But in my school experience, this didn´t happened to me.

I like my career, but I will like to have some time to make other things I love, I have many interests and the University doesn’t let me do all of them. I think if I could do other things, I would be happier with what I’m doing now.

    ...because I never had a way of life as well. (??)

    AT the beginning IT was kind of difficult, but with the time, I GOT used to IT.

    When I was at school, I had A LOT OF time to do other things like readING books, hangING out with friends, paintING, and a lot things more.




    I like my STUDIES ( check the meaning of the word CAREER), but I WOULD like to have some time to DO ...
