Dear 2016 freshman, I am A A Second year student. I am from Saudi Arabia who is left his country back and came to USA to continuing his high education. I was graduated from King Abdullah high school in my home country Saudi Arabia, Jeddah city. I chose Uindy, because my wife was studying in Washington DC and she got her acceptance at Indiana University to continuing her high level of education. Also I shoes Uindy, because it is convenient school and the area and people more friendlily than other. I did some research when I decided to move Indiana and I found that there are many Saudi student studying in uindy, which they going to help me to be familiar with place and city and university as well.
While I am studying English as second language, I was decided that my major in university will be Computer Science, also my dad asked me and repeated a lot to choose it, so I did not faced any problem to find major that I am going to study.
I found out that I love math more than other, this feeling was different when I was in high school. When I was in high school, I was heat the math a lot. Now I am older so I can manage my time and think clearly than I was.
Since I came USA, It took me long time to finishing the English class and reach the required score to get the acceptance at university. After I spend one year at university in Washington, my family moved to Indiana. Then I started to found where I am going to study and I do not know if the schools would accept me or not. The Uindy finally accept me. Since I moved to Indiana I have met with a lot of Saudi guys and Saudi Families here in Indiana. I also met with a lot of class mate in class while we were doing project or having group works.
Now I have many different groups of friends. They are at my building, Classes, Saudi families, friends from another states and Saudi student at Uindy.
If I want explain the time, it is difficult for me. I have two kids. Boy how has 7 years and girl in her 1st year old. I have to drive them to school every morning and taking care of them until their mom finished her work at IU health. I also have to be in class on time and do assignment on time as well. The professors was really helpful when I let them know that I have any issue with my daily trip or cases for my family.
Because I have taken class that need a lot of research, I used the research link at web site of uindy. I found every resources that I need for my assignment. She was helped me to that site.
The most important strategies that I have to read and do my homework every day because I am saved the knowledge that I have got from class and review it to keep it in my mind. In the end of term, you need to review the exams returned that will cover most of the and make the final easier.
The changing since I came to USA is a lot, here I am Responsible for my family and myself. I have to attend in class every day because of the F1 visa required to study full time and attending class every day.
I advise the new student to take their class early morning to have enough time to get back home and review and do homework. H also advise them to study with group because they share their knowledge. I asked them to go immediately to the professor if they have any problems to solve it early before it gets bigger.
