| I like Chemistry because it makes a lot of sense to me and I'm really excited about Organic next year. Also, I really like reading and writing. I just read Nabokov's Pale Fire twice for English and I loved it. I'm currently writing an 8 page essay on it. I feel like I'm in the minority in the world. Anyone else actually like school? |

| I like the general idea of going to school, improving my mind, learning and meeting new people. However, i hate class, i hate homeowrk and i despise studying. So basically i go to school and do the absolute minimum of those three things. |

School was awesome, besides the whole class/studying/testing thing.
Back then it was socially acceptable to not do much of anything and just hang out all the time. It was also acceptable for me to go out and booze 3-5 nights a week, play insane amounts of PS2 with friends, and to whore myself around to (almost) any girl willing and ready. If I went back to that lifestyle now as a twenty-six year old, my family, friends, and (especially) my fiance would all disown me in a heartbeat.
Those were the days... |

| Now that I've discovered (discovered for myself I mean, I've known about it forever) a certain performance enhancing study drug I consider studying something that's fun to do. The fact that I only have 2 more finals makes me feel like I've eaten half a candy bar and still wish I had the whole thing. Of course it helps to be studying with friends. |

Alibi....do NOT look forward to organic chemistry, it'll only make the inevitable repeated ass poundings all the more grim. trust me, it's just about the worst thing ever. I don't know where you go to school, but i think its universally regarded as one of the most difficult/tedious/abstract subjects there are.
its nothing like g-chem. nothing at all. |

I've heard it's nationally ridiculously hard and whatnot, but it seems like it applies to a lot of things. In addition, I took an introduction to o-chem last year in my high school and I like it even though I'm sure it has nothing on college o-chem. |

I didn't like accounting much. I got an A because my teacher was the nuts though. |

I think school is the least creative way to learn.
I am thoroughly confused by the idea of art school... |

everyone saying o-chem is hard have obviously not taken any more chemistry past that.
take biochemistry and then post again saying what you think of o-chem = walk in the park. |

| I love school now that I can do it at home on the computer. The best part about my previous schooling years was selling large amounts of narcotics to naive little freshmen with rich daddies. Oh yeah, financial aid refund checks were nice, too. See previous reason. But I'm all grown up now and I just took a masters class online. It was the shit. I've never learned so much from school in my life! |
