[goharsguide]

note that all this can vary! these are just general trends, not absolute truths

Highschool teachers wants you to do better.

College profs expects you to already be better

“That stuff won’t fly in college”
In college: ✈️🛫🛸🚁🛩️

[nanashi]

High School: Don't use phones in class. This isn't going to pass in college.

College: _furiously uses phone during lectures_

[benevolente]

In highschool, it's adult teaching kids, but in college it's adults teaching adults, so they treat you LIKE an adult

[robertgiasi]

Except when they don’t publish the syllabus, which is ridiculous or they work off of the second syllabus

[RustyShackleford]

You pay for college, professor gets paid the same even if you don't show up and fail😂😂😂

[toonasag]

My college professors do notice when we're late and also remind us of due dates lol

[MattyH]

High school teacher: Student gets in trouble for any little thing.
College teacher: I don’t give a shit. I get paid either way.

This vastly varies depending on what type of college you go to. I go to a smaller college where most lectures are 10-20 students at the most. Professors absolutely notice when a student is absent or late and will even email you about it. Attendance is graded because classes are so small. They also constantly remind us of due dates.

"watch yourself because next year this stuff won't fly"
-everyone every year

[debbiegarcia]

To be fair, you chose to go to college

[jdgundy]

Another important thing to remember is that most high school courses are two semesters, ALL college courses are one. So you have half the time to learn the same information

[the_tale_adventures]

You describe college teachers how my middle school teachers described high school teachers

[TheRevelation_Official]

College professors keeping you failed as hell 💀😭😭

[Saransh_Tiwari]

Schools: You'll learn this jn college

College: You've studied this in school

[osterhai]

after finishing high school, high school suddenly becomes realy good.

[myeki]

No one will know. But some don't understand the idea of a simple perspective. So what if my grammatical structuring bad?

It's not just about America.

[aleaallee]

Imagine paying for college and professors not teaching you.

[uremomom-maya]

Starting in middle school I got the "I'm not you so I'm jot responsible for you" talk from every teacher. Which basically means they did not care about individual students, like the mentioned college professors lol
