generous of you to think that I have high school accomplishments
damn
Sad reality for me too
@@ishaanguha331 not really sad, no one gives a shit about high school accomplishments anyways
Right like 😭
@@splack9628 oh I just got into law school !
1. Don’t over boast about your high school accomplishments
It is important to recognize and be proud of the things you have achieved in high school, however, it is not something people want to hear all the time. Basically, do not excessive brag about it. Try to be humble and know your place.
2. Manage your time
Probably the simplest one, yet most important and hardest of them all. Pretty sure this one doesn’t need much explaining haha. But having a planner or some sort of agenda can help map out your schedule and make things easier for you! Doing things ahead of time can also help solve the issue of cramming and relieve a lot of stress.
3. You don’t need to go out all the time
Just because your friends are going out, doesn’t necessarily mean you have to join them. Especially if you go out several nights in a row, it can be very straining on your body. Know your limits and your priorities.
4. Utilize your school’s resources
College is expensive and you want to make sure you’re making the most of it. Take advantage of all the opportunities your school has to offer such as tutoring, internship opportunities, advising, etc.
5. It’s okay to accept that you’re not okay
Adjusting to college is very difficult and understanding your troubles is perfectly fine. Whether it’s being homesick or school is simply too rough for you is okay. It is what you plan to do about it that makes the difference. Take the initiative and seek help through counseling and your mentors.
6. Don’t compare yourself to others
Constantly dwelling over the accomplishments of others only burdens yourself. Instead of wasting your energy comparing, take action and better your own self.
7. Keep your home home
I guess this one only applies if your dorming, but you want to make your room as comfortable as possible. If you’re going to be spending a lot of time in your room doing homework, or whatever it may be, you at least want it to be a pleasant and enjoyable place.
8. Take time for yourself
It is okay to take breaks and unwind. Don’t overburden yourself to much with school. After all, your health and body is important!
I’m only a freshman in college, but after a semester of study, I think these tips stand true and very helpful! Another great video as always Nic👌Good luck to all my uni fellows and wish you the best of luck on your finals👍
i can relate too as I'm a college freshmen
This would be a good comment to come back to while I am moving into my new college dorm to just keep all this in mind.
Ur awesome omg
Noted!
Jacob Kang 🐐🐐🐐🐐
Don't say "back in high school I used to bus it to the dance" anymore boys
And please don’t turn to drugs when you get stressed out and say, “I did half a zan, 13 hours till I land”
“Had me out like a”
@@feelingbl Like a light
I was playing 2K19 and as soon as I read this comment that lyric came on. Dead ass no cap wth
College is pretty chill. My main tip is go at your own pace. Not everyone graduates in 4 years and that's perfectly ok. Take it seriously from the get-go. That's so you can learn to relax instead of wasting time learning to work hard. Sophomore year as an RA and nursing major, I joined so many more clubs, went to more events and still had a handful of free time. My 4.0 wasn't effected. Good video. Don't compare yourself is great advice. There will always ALWAYS be someone who does better than you. Your only competition is yourself.
Is it true that some professors let the final be something as simple as drawing a potato?
@@user-oy1ee2sr7q i think it depends on the professor and class. the easiest final i had was a quizlet about my favorite things
“You’re only competition is yourself” that hit me hard since I always compare myself to other. Since I came in this country 3 years ago I had little knowledge and everyone is better than me. They’re already took 2+ AP; I’m in high school btw.
yes, because there will always be someone better than you, feeling stressful is kind of unnecessary (but I still do)
“Comparison’s the thief of all joy” damn.
My #1 tip as a student that I find 90% of students don't take advantage of is... Applying for bursarys and scholarships trough your schools website. I wasn't that smart in college but I recieved in total almost 10 grand that i didn't have to pay back. It literally takes 10-15 minutes to apply and i didn't even apply to all of them.
CLASS OF 2023! LETS GET THIS BREAD 🥖
For college or high school?
@@wendiwasden2635 college of course lol GO DAWGS!!
Class of 2300
Max AYYYYY
Lets see dem aliens while we at it 💀
Bro you go to Princeton?! I think there's probably more than 20 valedictorians there lol
yeah.. more like 20 people there aren't valedictorians...
Matthew Gillespie lmao
He's not making the video only for people who go to Princeton
Probably in his class. There is probably thousands of valedictorians that ran through
@@TheCinderellaPrincess out of 2000 Princeton students there's only 20 valedictorians? I feel some doubt about that
I was already not shit in high school..... YAAAAAAAY I get a head start.
😒🤣
In addition to what you said, I really liked low-volumed, light background music. It's like it is not there but it is.
the first one hit hard. not me. but my orientation had some kid who would not shut up about how he's a scholarship athlete and a state competitor in high school. he was like "they called me the golden jet" 100% seriously. it was really hard not to laugh. i meet a lot of people in high school that seem to think they're the shit but to watch someone get humbled so fast is really something else. i'm excited to meet people i can have good conversations with, who aren't completely ego-centric as many people from my high school were.
I love that first one 😂 he laid it out STRAIGHT LIKE THAT no bullshit. Man, from a college kid in NY I appreciate this video because these college freshmen are cocky as hell and it’s ridiculous. Good luck with this last month-ish of the semester! Happy Thanksgiving Man 👏🏾👏🏾
I just got accepted to my dream school now I’m just researching advice, even though I should be doing homework right now but this is more useful.
JUJU BEAN congrats, what is your dream school?
Same.
Afro Love same
I Think 'Time management " and "not have to going out all weekends" are the most important advice many students relate too. When you are homesick with bunch of new exciting freedom. All you want to do is probably hangout and procrastinate . So that you don't left out and feel FOMO big real. It is very hard to think independently . Managing time wisely is very important in college. Especially when you are in Greek life and have many things going on . It's only so easy to waste time when there is so many parties going on especially in the begining of freshman year. Feel relate on a whole level .
Lol I was a high school introvert that would stay home, study, and play games so I'm good 😂😅
Bro same
These are things I wish I knew before birth
Same bro same.
Lol Yeah, I think more people should live by these rules, then maybe we wouldn't have so many people that are stuck up and/or Lost (That's just a generalization)
I am gonna be a high school senior this year and its really crazy how much personal growth I have went through. Like I went from not placing any effort in my grades freshman year to always making sure I place my best foot forward. At the end high school will really pass by in a speed! I am excited for the college process but really nervous.. so hopefully all goes well. Class of 21!
Thank you for the honest advice. I know I can relate, very much. The part "It's okay to not to be okay" and "Don't compare yourself" rings true.
definitely one of the best college advice videos i’ve ever watched. as a current freshman you talked about exactly what i’ve been feeling. most advice videos don’t touch base on mental health so i really do appreciate that. one of the main things i got out of this video is to not just survive, but thrive. thanks man.
I loved how you expressed these points. Very well spoken.
This sounds on point. Other things that help are getting 8+ hours of sleep, joining clubs, exercising, and not going out on weekdays (back to getting enough sleep).
As a freshman in college rn, I agreed with a lot of the things u said 👌🏻
Thanks for the Video Nic!!!You've made me feel so much more confident on my upcoming freshman year for college
Take time for yourself is so true. Keeping the right pace is a skill.
Just found your channel, super helpful and informative video. I’m about to start my freshman year of college, and everything you said has crossed my mind either once or twice before. Thanks dude!
Of course
This is great advice. I might be going to Jackson State Community College soon. When I graduate from, I'm going to transfer to the University Of Memphis at Lambuth & I'll double major in English and History.
I graduated from high school in 2010. I was in a very emotionally fucked up play back then & I also wasn't very mature.
But I've matured a lot & I'm in a better place, mentally & emotionally.
Awesome vid. It’s my third year of college and this still helps me. Thanks brotha. Subscribed!
Great video nick , keep up the good work !
This might be a weird compliment but I really like those transition title animation! The advice seems great too 👍
thanks sm for these videos :) the perspective of college is daunting but it seems fairly manageable now
A levels totally humbled me already 🙂🙂🙂
Planners are needed !
Mr. Chae.
Congratulation on making it to your sophomore year. As a High School Teacher I share all of these except #7 as things they need to know and do. Some listen and some don't. You know what happens to those that don't. I think I will make this required for my seniors.
Been a min since I had time to watch a vid of yours nic! Keep working hard
You honestly deserve more subscribers!
Great video man. Keep the hustle going.💯
PREEEECH, fuck this the truth. Youve hit everything a freshman feels and I love this. Thank you✨🦋
Thank you for the heads up!! I 'll be seeing u there in the uni soon, hopefully, I come across u and get more advice.
I'm a freshman at university in Iran.university is a bit different here from what you described(till now atleast).I feel overwhelmed by the way our professors teach and generally i'm having a hard time.your video was helpful, thank you 💜
Awesome 'from heart sharing' man,
Really like that honest life moment lessons sharing is what I really appreciate, thanks
you conveyed this really well, thank you!
Bruh!! I seriously have trouble with procrastinating my work, right now I have a 10 page paper I need to be writing but instead I am on RUclips 🙃
Did you finish your paper?
as an upcoming college freshman, this really helped.. thank you :)
I really loved this video, thank you 👌🏾
I’m only in 8th grade, guess it’s better to prepare early? 🤷♂️
o l i v e r ! Yes! Prepare, bcuz college is alot different than high school and takes time to adapt!
Absolutely. If anything, I wish I could have realized how important keeping a good GPA is when I was a freshman/sophomore. Keeping good grades and learning good habits in high school is to prepare you for college, where your performance does matter and will follow you for the rest of your life. But don’t stress too much of it, the real essay stressing will happen late 11th-12th grade, so for now just keep your grades up and take part in long lasting (entire high school) extracurriculars. Best of luck and I wish you success in the next 4 years :)
This advice is still very useful for highschool
Thanks for the advice
o l i v e r and richiard same (well I’m a freshman in hs)
This is so far my favorite freshman advice video... 👍🏻👍🏻
I’m nervous about heading off to college but this gave me so peace
don't be nervous! you got this
Great video man . thank you
ngl this was the most helpful video I've ever watched on youtube
Why am I here when I only have a 2.1 GPA
I was on academic probation in hs and now im going to a 4yr uni. don't be discouraged, you can do this:)
I'm too scared to even know my GPA
CIGAngeles Xhang same I failed like 3 subjects last finals and I didn’t even bother to calculate
chi omg i’m so happy 4 you!!
At least you wont be a nerd like this wanna becool kid
CLASS OF 2020!!! Let's goooooooo!!🎉😳🎊🤯🎉🤸♀️🤸♂️
Still excited?
nice vid nic, keep up the good work
it's like i'm watching TEDtalk, real nice tips nic !
Lol ik this video is a year old, but could you make a video about your experience of “utilizing your school resources”. Like what were things you were asking for and what was the process. It’ll be a great thing to learn like I wouldn’t think of asking for video equipment and stuff like that. Thanks for this video btw :) v helpful I’m subscribing lollll
My teacher sent this video to me as an assignment and I just ✨subbed cause I loved it that much ✨
no way that's epic!
Ahh thank you for this🧡🧡🧡
Great video man
OMG🙇 thank you so much...... just be blessed 🙏
I have learned a lot from u, thank u so much. And ur videos are rightly suitable to improve my English.
So awesome thank you!
these r all great tips as im a rising freshman, thx dude
Supporter from Brooklyn 😊
important message!
I swear I've watched all your college videos
I realized a while ago that the only books I had time to read were text books
this is the shit i need. im just imaginin how stressful its like
sweet nice video i liked that this was real good advice
Probably would be nice to go to princeton.
Going into my freshman year in September kind of worried because I know for sure being a bio major will be hard simply because math isn’t my thing 🤦🏾♂️
that cheeky promo bro hahaha
My favorite RUclipsr ☺️☺️☺️☺️
Hey Nic, what Laptop stand do you use? Also, do you feel it is wide enough? Or when typing does the laptop tip and teeter?
Well crafted video
How did you get your school to buy you equipment? Was it the videos you post about Princeton or something else?
this is so interesting!
thank you 😭
Great vid
My advice as a guy graduating with multiple degrees/certs... One, it's a degree... It does not define you or make you knowledgeable. Doesn't make you better.
Learn a side skill, practical one. Suggestions: CAD, R, python, GIS, Adobe, business, hazard environmental, hazmat, sampling, communication, etc.
Apply it for projects. Not passive study. Passive study is shit for reaching in deep. It's good for skimming and getting back a feel but not deep learning.
In your free time.
Thank you so much
It has been since a couple videos since we've seen your cool intro.
Amazing video :)))
Thanks for the visit
Realest video on college ever
You mentioned such important things I wish more people would value! It would make the overall stress level of students decline
this was so helpful, even for hs 😌
I am high school student a Junior so this shit is mad important too me.Thx for this important info
My mom is already kicking me out of my room and I haven’t left for college yet
Class of 24 !!!!😈😈😈
Hi! Just wanted to know whether you were an international student or a local one. If you were the former, did you have any difficulties getting into Princeton?
👍👍👍🔥🔥🔥Good one there
My thoughts throughout this video:
1. Glad Im already humble-I hate myself 😊
2. Lol time management? Don't know her (but I'm trying to fix this lol)
3. Go out? You think I have friends? H a
4. Im actually got at this
5. My campus has a free therapist I'm so happy about it. Never been scared to not be okay
6. Don't compare myself? I only wish I couldn't. It puts me into hyperdrive tho
7. This point has been drilled into my head, don't take your whole room to college
8. Im really good at my alone time. Love binging to wind down
In all seriousness, thank you. I'm trying hype myself up for college (as a brand new senor in highschool)
Nice video bro
Also, not all of your knowledge of how undergrad works will transfer to grad school. It can be a very different world. A lot of people go to undergrad because they *have* to. A lot of people go to grad school because they *want* to. It means people take everything a lot more seriously.
This is a dope video
Im just nervous about not having a friend group, in highschool I had like 1 friend and he didn't even go to my school...
college is a great place to meet new people
I’m a 2020 graduate, why am I here? It’s recommended lol
w-we have the same bed covers
I believe time management is a big one 😢
Yes
You talk really fast but i clicked bcus other coll advice vids are so long.😂😂...but thank u so much im going to be in college this year and this was so helpful😭thank u again
THESE ARE SO TRUE. I just made a video on advice too! More to come :)))
You go to Princeton? Carlton somewhere punching the air.
