5 out of 5 stars Informative   September 1, 2009
K. Orielly (Milwaukee, WI)
This book has helped me prepare for my upcoming freshman year at college. Some of the topics I have been more versed in, but finally had some questions that I always wondered about (college classroom etiquette for example). As a new student I would (and have) recommend this book to other students, parents, and staff who want an honest and current look at what college is like today. Plus, the author is friendly and not preachy at all which makes it easy to read.


5 out of 5 stars Great book   August 29, 2009
brooksmusic (Panama City, FL United States)
I bought this for one of my students who was going off to college. It's a great reference for all you might want to know about what to expect your freshman year. She loved it.


5 out of 5 stars Awesome Introduction   August 18, 2009
S. Schnorr (Long Island NY)
Overall this book was a wonderful introduction to my college search and overall prperation for college. It brought up many of the issues I had worried about such as roommates, and housing and others I had not even thought about like religion and the large impact it can have on your college experience. Of course this is not meant to be a substitute for the actual experience of college however i think it is a great way to really and accurately prepare for what is supposed to be a great time.


5 out of 5 stars Absolute best of its kind for the beginning college student   August 11, 2009
I'd Rather Be Reading
Practical, humorous, offering LOTS of solid advice that is fun to read, this book is the best of three highly-recommended guides we recently purchased. The author covers every topic you have questions about, plus many other topics you may not have even considered. The book is informative in a down-to-earth way, and you will be entertained while being enlightened. Besides his own views, Mr. Cohen provides anecdotes from current and/or recent college students. Every prospective college freshman should read this book before setting foot on campus in the fall.


3 out of 5 stars A little disappointed.   August 5, 2009
Katy Davis (Texas)
1 out of 1 found this review helpful

I am an entering college freshman. I read the reviews for this book and was really excited for it's arrival. Overall, it is informative but incredibly repetitive. It could have been cut down to about ten tips instead of the overwhelming and somewhat boring one-hundred and seven. A lot of it is common sense and I could have done without reading it. The study tips included and the conflict resolution/avoidance tips will come in handy but I am not really impressed.
