<p>whats the ONE THING you would have brought to college?
looking back now…</p>
<p>More maturity. I think I would have gotten more out of my college experience had I delayed it for a year or two. Say’la’vie</p>
<p>I would second that. A friend of mine who delayed going to college for a couple of years said that college was wasted on the young. Having not taken advantage of all the courses and other opportunities available to me as an undergrad (30+ years ago), I made up for it in graduate school after working for three years. It also helped knowing exactly what I wanted to study in graduate school to prepare for the career that I had chosen from paraprofessional work in that area.</p>
<p>I also wish I had taken a year in-between, though I was not even mature enough at the time to think clearly about what I would have done in that year.</p>
<p>More of whatever the opposite of “shyness” is. It is so much easier to meet people and make friends in college. Take full advantage!</p>
