Senior year is the most difficult year--hands down. The classes are harder, and laziness begins to rear its ugly head. At the tail end of college, seniors are so worn down from their previous years of education and newfound pressures.
Pressures that include but are not limited to full time jobs. Many seniors find full time jobs in their field before they graduate. They can't afford to leave the job and often find themselves with less time to study, which negatively affects their grades.
" I had a solid C average my senior year because I was working at least 40 hours a week, and going to school full time," said Shondra Castiano.
Other seniors that don't have career-oriented jobs yet, are even more stressed. These seniors are coming to the realization that they will soon be thrown into the real world and do not yet have a way to support themselves. "I question whether or not these years in school were worth it," said college senior Janene Shell. "I mean, what job will I end up with," she added.
In the end, with a lot of discipline and effort, senioritis can be overcome, allowing students to go on and walk proudly across the stage at graduation to recieve their degrees.
