One of the best parts of growing up is the college life. With college life comes new friends, new experiences and whole lot of fun, but there also comes new set of fears too. Though college has been regarded as the most carefree time of our lives yet it has been regarded as the most anxious one as well. The top 6 fears among most youngsters are :-
- Losing our way in the campus
This is the biggest fear students come across, since all the buildings are painted in same in colour losing out your way is the most common problem. Just imagine stepping into a wrong classroom or standing on a long narrow corridor can give you chills.
- Who will be my roommate?
Will he be my best friend or will I be at par with that person? Being randomly assigned to stay with a complete stranger is nothing less of nerve-wracking. There are lot of stories around about how unbearable the roommates can be, but it totally depends on you and how you both gel along as it needs time to mix up.
- Realizing you are in the wrong Subject
This is the fear with which maximum students can relate to. You start taking classes in and in initial stages only start losing interest, feel bored and decide to change your career path which can prove to be a daunting experience. In this case academic counsellors can help you in making a plan and adhere to stick to it.
- Sleeping in the Classroom
Some classes are indeed boring and yes everyone has done it, you will hear lot of stories from other students about the classroom sleeping pattern. Lectures are often boring so you might never know as to when you catch a sleep.
- Adjusting to a New Place
College is a time where many of the students move out of their hometown to get better education and leave behind their zone of comfort. This is a fear which many students face especially if they are moving to a bigger city.
- Making new friends.
Many people are introvert by nature, hence find it difficult to interact. Take your time their will b many people who feel the same as you and eventually you will mix up and make great friends.
