The info was pretty good, but not nearly as fun as the title would suggest & very repetitive. The author also came across kind of supercilious.

The narrator’s voice is a little self-conscious and intrusive, but I think this would be an excellent gift for a new college student.

Great read for those about to go to college!
Used it for my Career and College Readiness high school class and they seemed to enjoy it as well. Lots of topics that the kids can read about instead of me having to discuss them (because some can be uncomfortable).
Would suggest!

A must-read for anyone going to college. Reading it makes me feel so much more prepared, and gives lot of insider info on what college is really like. The author presents the tips with stories from college students from all across the country, giving the reader an idea of just what can really happen. He's very real and unpretentious with his readers, making the book humorous and fun to read. I checked out this book from the library, and liked it so much that I'm probably going to buy myself a copy and bring it with me to college for reference whenever I need it. I will also be buying copies for my senior friends.

This definitely gave me some good advice about some things to expect my first year of college. I recommend flipping through and getting an general idea of some good tips.

Great resource for all college students - fun to read and incredibly useful information. Go get it for all the college students you know who are just getting started (or those who will be going next year).

The good intentions definitely come through, but the humor doesn't always quite hit the mark (some jokes are more groan-worthy or insensitive than others). Some pretty good advice, though nothing really revolutionary.
