What’s been the hardest part about the transition to college?

Hi @stuffedyoda! I think the part that hit me the most was getting used to being surrounded by 200 other incredibly smart students (in my class of SCS). You’re suddenly working with the brightest students all at the top of their class in high school, and I will not be sugarcoating the rigor of SCS. SCS teaches you how to think and is incredibly theory/algorithm heavy which was all new to me - I’ve never done any math competitions, let alone even take a discrete math class!
