#16: A Hard Deadline
As you grow up, you learn that everyone is different in terms of how lax they are. There are people who are always right on time and others who are inevitably late for everything. Some of us may have grown up hearing about how strict college professors were in regard to deadlines and assignments.
Any college student can tell you that the reality is much different. Many high school teachers mislead students into thinking that late assignments are automatic failures in college. That’s true for some strict professors, but not always. Some professors are understanding of student’s workloads and will often extend deadlines or due dates if asked. Open communication is key!
