College Unit: Was It Helpful?

Let me ask you this: Did you find the College Unit (and Everything Else, too!) helpful?

I want you to talk to me about it a little bit. What would you have done differently? What would you have included or excluded? Do you think you will have use of these types of papers in the future?

(Be honest, but please do not be hurtful!)

Germany+USA=love said...

It was even useful for me, who's not going to college.
I could practise how to apply for a job and what to write as a CV/resume and so on. And it was not long unit, much information in a short time.

Angela said...

I thought the college unit was useful. You helped me improve my writing and yes I think I will use these assignments as references when I am writing later.

masterchief said...

The college unit has given me an idea about what job to pursue in the future. I needed every part of this unit to allow me to express my career choice.

littlepeanut said...

yes the college unit was helpful. I know how to do a résumé a little better than i did before.

Corey said...

itsnotme said...

I learned a few things about resemes and job interviews but other than that it wasn't all that helpful

twiggy said...

i found the college until extremely stressful but fun. thanks geist!

noodle said...

it was helpful not as much as i thought but still helpful

i probably wont use these when im outta high school but ill use the guide line sheets we got

Little Sparrow said...

It was kind of helpful, but I already know everything that I'm going to in/for college so it wasn't THAT helpful.

DaRkxXxNiTE said...

yea it was useful....those skills aren't only useful for college but for life in general

Sorax said...

The unit was cool.
helpful. i mean i could prolly use some of those papers in the future. the guys that came in were pretty cool. interesting. I think it was all worth it

Dennis said...

it was helpfull and gave some good info but collage will still be a land of mistery

brado said...

it was a lot to take in at once, it all kind of came at us, like "here are the instructions, good luck" or so it seemed. i would have spread it out throughout the year. there were definitely too many kids in the cafeteria for the college fair though.

BB-BB said...

Yes it was somewhat useful. It gave me an idea of my future ahead.

**GUESS** said...

I thought the college unit was some what helpful but i wish we could have done something that was a little more useful.

Dr. Greenthumb said...

Tigger15 said...

Yes,it was helpful. i got a better look at a variety of Colleges.Learning how to properly write a cover letter and resume will be put into great use in the close future.

Mr. Irresistible said...

yeah i thought that it helpful

fms_xo said...

The college unit was really helpful. Some of the people were boring to listen to but all around it helped out a lot. I'm definately sure that I will end up using some of the papers because every job needs a resume and mostly every college needs an admissions essay.
SoOoOoOoO THANKS MS. GEIST!

Beautiful Flower said...

The college until was helpfull, and sure some of the people were boring to listen to, but overall everything was helpful. Yes, these types of paper will be useful in the fiture

Autumn Rose said...

Yes I think that the unit was helpful. It may have been a bit boring but I know it will come in useful in the near future.

TheJoker said...

The college unit was extremely helpful. Everything that we learned in the college unit will be used throughout our life not only college.

It also made me realize how close college is and that I really need to get into gear towards college.

No. It made me feel intimidated. I wonder if there is a college for make-up artists.

I think the college unit was a little frustrating because there were so many things we all had to complete. All this talk about growing up and becoming an adult is getting me a little scared because i still have no idea what im going to do for the rest of my life. Atleast for sure. I have ideas but none are a sure thing yet.

squadala said...

it was ok
