[originaltext]M: You are heading for a completely different world now that you

M: You are heading for a completely different world now that you are about to graduate from high school.
W: I know it’s the end of high school, but many of my classmates are going on to the same university and we are still required to study hard. So what’s the difference?
M: Many aspects are different here at university. The most important one is that you have to take more individual responsibility for your actions. It’s up to your own self-discipline how much effort you put into study. Living in college dormitories, there are no parents to tell you to study harder or stop wasting time. Lecturers have hundreds of students, and they are not going to follow you up or question you if you miss their lectures.
W: Nobody cares, you mean?
M: It’s not that nobody is concerned about you. It’s just that suddenly at university you are expected to behave like an adult. That means concentrating on the direction of your life in general and your own academic performance specifically.
W: For example?
M: Well, like you need to manage your daily, weekly and monthly schedules so that you will study regularly. Be sure to attend all classes and leave enough time to finish assignments and prepare well for examinations.
W: Okay, and what else is different?
M: Well, in college, there are lots of distractions and you need to control yourself. You will make interesting friends, but you need only keep the friends who respect your student commitments. Also, there are a lot of wonderful clubs, but you shouldn’t allocate too much time to club activities, unless they are directly related to your study. It’s also your choice if you want to go out at night, but you will be foolish to let that affect your class performance during the day.
W: Well, I’m determined to do well in university and I guess I am going to have to grow up fast.
