College is going to rape you. Haha
I'm in my second quarter at UCLA and I had an 8 page paper due today. I got back a 5 pager on Tuesday, and I got back a 5 pager on Wednesday.
I have an 8 page paper due next Wednesday. Keep in mind I also have final exams this week, next week, and the following week.

: That's interesting, because after this year is over (I'll be a senior next year), I'll have written 2 papers in 3 years. I'm terrified for college.
: As for getting lost in the shuffle, I take it that it's a NYC public school thing, not just Science. Fucking board of ed.
