How college grading is different from high school
When moving on to college after high school you must know that you won't be told what to do, as to a high school student in a classroom with 30 other peers. There are many different things with the grading system that we can simply see when going off to college which is listed below. In high school we are so use to having the teacher tell us whats due each day and having our parents on our backs every night, but when we get to that college lecture hall with possibly more than 100 students the professor won't ever or hardly remind you when assignments are due, and your parents will have to leave it all up to you because you're officially an adult. The grading system that colleges use are way different then high schools. Courses may vary to different amount of credits which is different from high school because every class is worth the same amount of credits.
