I'm entering Uni next year, and wondering whether you prefer University or High School.
I know a lot of people have a lot of good memories in High School, but I've also heard that University is considered one the greatest times of their life.
Which one do you prefer?
I would always assume University would be better because there's more freedom in the flexible class hours and that the work is up to you. But I also hear that people miss the more structure that is given in High School.
High school a million times more, I just loved school.
school sucks
6th form/college is awesome (lots of free lessons to chill and have a laugh with friends)
uni is awesome (laziness, flexibility and independence)
preferred high school
I preferred high school way more, at University there is a lot more freedom, but there is so much work. I do a 31 hour week at University, and I'm expected to do another 31 hours per week on top of that for independent work at home.
High school the pressure is a lot less, and you're growing up, it's more relaxed. It's fun :P
I hated high school bc no subjects i liked plus i was picked on all throughout it n teachers were no help at all
i love uni bc i learn things im interested in, making it easier to do work outside of uni and we get a lot of help even tho we were told at school tht uni lecturers don't care bout ur education they're just there to give u the info then leave lol plus all people here are similar minded (except ones on course just for a degree lol) so easier to make convo with n if u find it hard to make friends there are always nights out to loosen u up, not somethin u get at high skl
I hated university. So college for me.
Both have their positives and negatives.
Overall I would probably say Uni because you have that independence and flexibility.
i hate high school and im sure uni will be 10000000 times better because i already get a lot of work in high school and i've seen how much work my sister gets in uni and when i compare it mine is MUCH more so yup
Wasn't a fan of high school and I'm enjoying uni a lot more, so uni for me.
Definitely high school for me
I'm enjoying university a lot more because at least in my program the students are all 20 years old plus so there is less drama then again I'm the only girl in my program. So I guess that's why. When I was doing college for early childhood education it was high school all over again mainly cause everyone was female. Prefer uni ;)

University for me. High school bred a lot of negativity in my life. I feel like at uni I am in complete control.
I hated high school how everything you do is monitored. You can't go and get lunch from across the road or you get detention. I also hated the cliques and generally how everyone was out to try better one another. Uni is so much better because you do what you want to do, you go where you want to go and you don't have to deal with people you don't like or care about.
I enjoyed my last year or so of secondary school, didn't really like college and uni is somewhere in between that.
uni 100000x more, you're doing something you actually chose to do & everyone is so much more mature, also relationships with the tutors is more personal i feel
uni was by far my favourite, studying a subject I love, getting to choice what I worked on and what essays to write (I loved writing my dissertation), those around you give a damn about their education and a genuinely nice (at least in my subject).
School was just absolutely horrible.
Going to uni next year but college is so much better than high school. You have more independence, get treated like an adult and don't have teachers screaming down your throat. :)
high school. so much easier.
High school :)
University. Not only in terms of independence but I feel like a lot more of my opinions and mind has been open to exploring and absorbing information more than ever. Not to mention, choosing your career path based on what you like or find that you resonate with.
preferred high school. :P
uni i can smoke on campus!!!!
