All four years were super hard for me. I had no fun at all.

I think many people have trouble staying organized and on schedule because there is so much more freedom and so little oversight compared to high school. For me at first I had a tough time because I had absolutely zero study skills and then later it was because I was in the wrong program (they belled the grades, only awarded 1 or 2 As per class and 33% were forced out of the program every year). I knew I wanted to go to grad school so had to get that A in every class. Surprisingly enough, grad school was so much easier and so much more fun.
