what I loved about College (I mean I'm still In it lol but almost done) is that while I got to keep my high school friends, I also got to make new friends from all over the world, and that gave me a much bigger perspective on life than I had prior.

[@cuckoos_]

An old middle school friend knew hardly any English when she joined at the beginning of year 5 (Romanian), but she sounded like everyone else after months of coming to school everyday. Don't worry about it, I get why'd you feel like that, but just hold your head high and kids will admire you. Honestly, from all I've seen, most kids are interested in foreign students, they're new and different from everyone else. I don't know what school you're going to, London will probably be different as it's full of mixed races and languages, but if you go to a more rural area of England, as long as you give them a reason, kids will appreciate you and like you just like you're one of them.

im starting college in september and im doing 4 a levels and im so concerned about the workload

[@MadsHopee]

wishing you the best of luck!!! I don’t know a lot of people that are doing 4 a levels so I haven’t really spoken to anyone to find out what the workload is like.... if you speak to your secondary school teachers and parents I’m sure they’ll be able to advise you whether they think it will be okay for you ☺️

Who here is yr 12 regretting their decision

[@MadsHopee]

aw nooo! it’s not too late to change your courses!!! in my college, you could change up to the first october half term :)

[@laylaeloise4766]

Mads Hope I’ve decided to go to college instead haha, I may be behind a year but oh well

[@Anthony-wi6pq]

Same with me!

[@FarhinTabassum]

Hey! What's your major?

[@MadsHopee]

Hey! So, college in the U.K. isn’t the same as university. We go to college before we go to university! At the moment, I’m studying travel and tourism, media and photography 🥰And at university, I want to study Film and TV production x

[@FarhinTabassum]

@@MadsHopee Just from curiosity, So after 12th grade, in U.K. you go to college, then University? Is college there is of 2 years or 4?

[@MadsHopee]

Farhin Tabassum so we go to college for 2 years, and then we go to university for 3 years (or 4 years if you do a masters/placement etc)!

My collage course is on it a year

[@cavanaughwives1663]

Farhin Tabassum in the uk 6th, 7th, 8th grade and freshman and sophomore year are together and it’s called secondary school. College is junior and senior year. Then we have university which is college in the Usa. I hope this helped!
