    College representatives often exaggerate the fun aspects of college life and downplay the challenges to attract more applicants, a practice known as "mushfaking". While college is not all bad, the realities of difficult classes, poor time management when over-involved, and developing strong study habits are often left out. True dedication is needed to be successful in college, as balancing school, work if employed, and managing one's time takes effort.

    How does mushfaking play into what you are expected to do in


    college?

    For me, college was expressed as this institution that is fun and where classes
    arent too difficult. The representatives that show up to your high school sells an
    image of a place of exploration and positivity. They embody the concept of
    mushfaking to gain potential applicants. They forget to tell you the hardships and
    negativity. College isnt all bad, but time management can be a bit of an issue if you
    become too involved. Also, balancing school and work if you do have a job. College
    classes are not something to be taken likely. Not for the simple fact that you do pay
    for college, but the curriculum can be difficult. Another issue I personally have found
    is study habits. The same way you may have studied in high school may not work in
    college. It takes true dedication in order to be successful in college. That is
    something that needs to be stressed.
