“college” being a thing you go to after school, not during it

"college" being a thing were you play sports more than learn at a higher level

What if it takes you a year and a half to get your first year hours in? You can't be a "first-year" student if you've been at college for two years.

pplains, Saturday, 17 February 2018 22:55 (six years ago) link

you can if you're doing all first-year subjects

reverse-periscoping (Autumn Almanac), Saturday, 17 February 2018 23:04 (six years ago) link

You're a first year if you're doing first year

XP see

it's like when someone is born on Feb 29 and they can celebrate their 2nd birthday when they're 6 years old.

make that 8 years old. this math stuff is hard.

A is for (Aimless), Saturday, 17 February 2018 23:07 (six years ago) link

They'd be a real asshole of an 8 year old but that in itself is not uncommon I spose

Also there's none of this "getting the hours in", the uni chucks all the students out by May so they can rent out the facilities to businesses until October

also, iirc there's no single word in american that covers this scenario anyway. i've never heard of anyone who's still doing first-year subjects in their second year of enrolment saying e.g. "i'm a trinitron"

reverse-periscoping (Autumn Almanac), Saturday, 17 February 2018 23:15 (six years ago) link

Third trimester eh

rum dmc (darraghmac), Saturday, 17 February 2018 23:16 (six years ago) link

the american terms refer to years spent there, not level of courses taken
