re: The Decision: What SEC school should I attend?

I heard that the school is so big that a lot of the business classes are taken online and you don't even meet your professor. Is this true?

I don't know, but I'm sure google does.

In terms of school choice, go visit everywhere you're interested in. Look into their business schools, and specifically how they are at each major. Also realize you very well may end up in a completely different major. I started in Finance, now I'm in Chem E.

When you get in, don't be stupid scheduling your classes the first semester. I've seen enough people (myself included) do something stupid like take a hard science at 7:30 in the morning three days a week. Unless you're just super focused on school, you're not going to go to class. It's your first time away from home at a place full of distractions. No need to murder your GPA that early. Hit your Gen Ed. requirements, but the easy ones. English Comp, Philosophy, Sociology, ect. Take em in the afternoon on T/Th and what you can't fit there take as a night class (ideally on Wed). You get a five day weekend and an easy courseload during that adjustment period. There will be plenty of time for Calculus and Chemistry down the road, when you're more mature.
