Like AuCN I graduated at 20, but from Vanderbilt University. (But, uh... now I'm officially a third year Master's student... which is pathetic. It wouldn't be if I were still serious about the PhD, but biomedical engineering is just SO DAMN BORING.)

Not going to college yet, but I'm hoping I'll get smart enough to go to the University of the Philippines in two years (Thank goodness I'm not in the 5-year high school batch! Apparently, this year's incoming freshmen are, though. ohoho.)
So yeah. Major transitioning phase? If this thread still lives or is re-made in two years, I can post here and happily say bye-bye to my "All-girls catholic private school" subtitle. wootness!

Is it me, or are a lot of the pinoys here highschoolers/fresh grads? xDDD

I don't even.
....My sister's going to san beda for law school and I went there with her last week.

excuse me while I scream into my pillow.

And to think that I'm going to take law there years and years later. (Once I finish accountancy. XD)
Guess it really is a small world. XD

Waaah everything is so different =.="
England is weird.
College is what you go to if you can't get into a sixth-form, which is Years 12-13 (aged 16-18), and THEN you go onto University >w<
Anyways, I plan on staying on in my secondary school, Years 7-11 (aged 11-16), for sixth-form before going onto university to study further Chemistry and Biology or Maths in Warwick University, Imperial (LONDON *o*) or University of York :)

Haha, so many college folks around here. I wasn't even aware.

I'll be a junior this fall at Carnegie Mellon University (in the US), majoring in Chemistry and English. Also being the president of our GLBT organization, whoo.

I'll be a freshman in college this fall; I'm studying biology with a pre-med concentration.
My college has its own ski slope... :O

Getting an associate's degree in Science focused on biology (I wanted chemistry, but I couldn't get scheduled correctly in order to take my other classes. Bio is easier though.). Transferring to a local university to get a batchelors in Computer Science and hopefully a minor in design. It would be awesome to get a minor in Chinese or Japanese as well, but I won't have the money for that most likely ;___;

I obviously want to work in the game or software industry. What do y'all want to do with your majors, though?

Currently I'm in fourth year business school with an accounting concentration. I already have the requirements needed to graduate the program, but I'm taking a few more courses so that I'll be able to qualify for an accounting designation.

Still considering going for my Masters', but I'd rather work at least a year after graduation.

I'll be entering my third year at Michigan State this fall with a double major in political theory and anthropology. My original plan was to go on to graduate studies in political anthropology and eventually become a professor, but I don't know how feasible that's going to be given the current state of academia, funding shortages, and lack of tenure track positions, especially in the social sciences. I might just end up going to medical school, which is what my parents want of me. :P

Seeing "COLLEGE TIME" scares me. You know that dream you have where it's final exam time and you realize you haven't been attending class at all and don't know what on earth is going on? Yeah, it never goes away :p

xD Haha, actually, most of my nightmares of the sort show me lost as I look for the room where I have to take the exam or arriving there too late.

I'm gong through finals at the moment. I don't dream about not knowing about what's on the exam, but when the exam is =.=
the awkward moment when you wake up at 6:30am in the morning testing everyone "DO WE HAVE AN EXAM TODAY?! IF WE DO WHEN IS IT?!"

I've had that dream too, though mine was when I was near the end of a semester and there was an entire unit I just hadn't been going to. For an outcome based course, that would have been disastrous D:

I got accepted into the honours program, but the stupid university sent it to the wrong address and it isn't transferable D:< And they were kind of 'Meh, your address must been wrong, you should have checked that' even though it was the ONLY letter that never got to my house. I was a little annoyed to say the least. I can probably still do it if I want since I still got the letter, but it was so unfair that it happened to be that letter out of all letters. *sigh* I don't have money for it anyway.

I am graduating from my Associates program at ITT Tech in May 2012. Then it is off to a four year school for my bachelors in Server Administration and Security at George Mason University. The fun part is that when I start George Mason I will have absolutely no time to do anything but eat, sleep, go to work, and study. *sigh* the price of being an adult...
