What You Make of Yourself
The academics at Boston College are what they are made out to be: great. However it also takes being a great student for them to seem so outstanding. It's easy to decide that you'll take slack classes or easy professors, but those classes end up being the most boring and you'll learn the least, which I feel is not fulfilling. My advice: take a hard class or two, with a professor that's a tough grader or gives a lot of work. They're usually the ones passionate about the subject and they aren't just "out to get you" -- they want you to succeed, you just have to fight for it and really ask around with other students which professors are best.
