Summary: 101 Things a College Girl Should Know
Comment: Light and easy reading. Easy to refer to quickly. Advice that freshmen girls could really use.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Waste of Money
Comment: I read through this in under 5 minutes. No information that you cant find somewhere else. Save your money. Not worth it... If you want this type of advice, just start asking family, friends, and teachers for college advice. Will equate to about the same thing.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Yes, it is a rip off
Comment: This took about 2 minutes to read-it's nothing but a tiny book with some college-oriented homilies. I was going to give this as a gift but for the money I spent I could actually get a book that might be worth something to the recipient.I'm returning this.
Customer Rating:
Summary: good book but slightly lacking
Comment: Someone gave this book to me during my freshman year of college. I read it quickly and laughed along at some parts as I realized that I had indeed already made those mistakes. By far this book is not an all-inclusive guide to college, but it does have some helpful tidbits. Even the parts that say, "drink water, get enough sleep" are good reminders for college girls, who often overlook these things as they get busy and in a new environment. I plan on giving this book to my younger sister when she graduates high school next year, but I intend to write some comments in the book after the author's advice, which is always a good idea to give it a more personal touch, and since some of the things in the book are slightly outdated.

Summary: 101 Things a College Girl Should Know
Comment: Great One Liner's, and very entertaining for the incoming freshman!!! My daughter loved the book and so did I.
The thought of her little sister, Amy, going off to the big world of college frightened Stephanie Edwards. How would she handle registration? What would she do on the first day of classes? How would Amy ever survive being away from home and family? Instead of taking the usual big-sister approach ("Oh, it's great. You'll love it!"). Edwards thought back to the trials and tribulations of her own first year at college, then created what has become the thoughtful gem of a book, 101 Things a College Girl Should Know from a Big Sister Who's Been There. "I tried to think of all the things I wish I'd known when I was a freshman," Stephanie writes her sister. "This list is advice based on some of the things I did wrong, something of the tings I saw my friends do wrong, and some things all first-year students do wrong. I hope you can learn from our mistakes." Edward's enlightening list will help college-bound freshmen everywhere to make that exciting-but-scary transition to campus life. She's full of thoughtful insights on the learning experience, such as Tip No. 2: "Whenever a professor offers office hours, visit him/her. (It makes a good impression.)" or Tip No. 19: "Remember: Frat guys + beer = TROUBLE"; and to help with life away from home, Tip No. 44: "Don't discourage your feelings of homesickness. (They pass.)" From tutoring to tooth care, class registration to roommates, 101 Things A College Girl Should Know has it all. Filled with helpful hints and gentle musings, this little book is a guaranteed hit as a graduation present, send-off gift, or thoughtful gesture for any campus-bound young woman.
