What should I expect heading into 1st year at NYCOM?

Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you in advance

Sorry DKCDO we're not igoring you. 2nd years have a block starting on Monday, and 1st years have a block coming up as well. We're starting to stress. I promise to give you a detailed reply in about 2 weeks or so. Just keep bumping this up, or so a search.

Do not stress about this now. You will never be ready enough and you will not understand untill you get there. The only advice I can give you is to try and get settled into a place to live a few weeks beforehand (I moved to NYCOM 2 days b4 class) , get all the partying/traveling/ wild monkey sex/ TV watching out of your system before you go in. Do not try to study ahead of time, its useless.
You dont have to buy books ahead of time- save your money until the first day of class and the profs will hand you fairly decent set of notes. You will learn to gauge what you need to buy....

hey, us first years start exams on monday, so maybe ocean and his year can fill you in for now... in general...dont study anything yet, join amsa get a free netter (this is only during orientation) and try to get settled in (living arrangements wise) before orientation. other than that, the orientation is gonna be plenty to provide you with "insider info".
