One reason that college is better than high school is that the student gets to experience what it is like to be an independent person by getting to choose the times in which they want to attend school. So if the students doesn’t want to get up at seven o’ clock in the morning to be to class by eight they can choose to start there day off at nine in the morning, and in college the student doesn’t have the same classes every single day. Where as in high school the day started at eight in the morning every single day, the students attend the same classes at the same times every day. One other reason students get to become more independent in there academic career is that if they skip class or are sick one day mommy or daddy don’t have to call the school to explain why the individual was not at school that day.
