Recently, I met a person who chatted online and always said like an elder that you will miss high school when you are in the fourth year. But I really don't understand the kind of high school in which there is no Saturday from 7 a.m. to 10 p.m. (I was in the key class at the beginning). There is only study and no freedom. What's the nostalgic life? I really want to miss it than to miss the easy college.

I guess it depends on how demanding the high school one attended was and also when. In my case, in early 2010 it was pretty relaxing, and one of the good things I remember was being with my classmates for a few years sharing some things in common, as seen in many anime series. Later, in college, I chose a computer-related degree which was somewhat demanding, but I practically had no time to socialize. The lectures were always filled with different people who sat in different places as they arrived, and the group projects were a disaster. I didn't finish that degree and ended up choosing something else.

Highschool just a tiny bit, only the good parts, college a lot more, especially my 2nd 3rd year and a bit of 4th year

College gave a lot more freedom and tbh way more time than high-school did.

Nobody misses school. It is nothing more than corporate-government brainwashing.

College more.
There is a careful mix of how knowledgeable we get and how much fun we have.
I think college is where the last of spontaneous creativity goes to die before we enter the world to be wage slaves. At least we were old enough to do whatever we wanted in College, even if we didnt have the money and time for all of it.

When people say they miss high school, they don't mean sitting in class. They miss being ~15-18 years old and all the freedom and new experiences that time offers, coupled with the lack of responsibilities of adulthood. Of course a part of that experience are all the interactions you have at school, but it's not the lessons themselves most people miss.

I'd definitely say I miss high school more, but that's just because I was surrounded by good friends and had a lot of fun novel experiences. College felt a lot more atomized. Just drudgingly turning in assignments already feeling fed up with life. The classes were better, but it lacked genuine communality, and I had personally lost a lot of the naivety that fueled that high school excitement.

College by far. I was clueless and mindless in high school, just doing what I was told. College really opened the doors to taking ownership of my life and doing interesting things.

I don't know if most of the pro-college ppl here attended at the pay-to-graduate ones. I attended a state-run one for a technical career, and it was truly hell. I had classmates who died from taking drugs trying to cope with the schedule of subjects and work

Of the 60 incoming students, only 15 remained after the second year

High school is trash. They don't teach you anything of value. It's just a big waste of time. You can just disregard school and instead should spend those 4 years learning something valuable like programming, business/marketing, philosophy, mechanics, and law. College is where you need to start taking things seriously. If you choose to go the college route, then you need to spend your time as prudent as possible. Don't waste time with jackass professors, electives, clubs, or hookup "culture", and the like. Those are all distractions meant to diminish your success later in life. Friends are only a waste of time if you hang out with shitheads like frat bros or anybody politically inept enough to think voting changes anything. College isn't the only route btw. There's trade schools, military, parenting, creative pursuits, and nomadic travelling. Just figure out what it would take to get to where you want to be at the age of 50, be it home ownership, kids, honorary titles, notoriety, talent, experience, etc etc etc etc etc...

Yes, but the point here is whether you miss it or not. In my case, I didn't choose my career out of vocation, but because it was the one most likely to provide me with a good job according to the market's law of supply and demand. Although I could have studied on my own, society requires that driver's license called a degree.
Also, if pursuing a degree were something enjoyable, then why is there so much dropout rate at universities?

High School was pretty uneventful, and don't miss it. I went to a trade school like a smart person and got certified workimg in a 6 figure field doing HVAC-R and spent my young adult life making money and banging broke college chicks who'd go on a date just to eat something other than ramen noodles. So I guess college, kinda?

High school. It was when I still had no adult responsibilities.

This and I fantasized my female classmates and teachers (at least the attractive ones) being stark naked and subjected to all sorts of anal-related fetishes, all the while getting bored to death by Additional Math (aka Advanced Math) and Moral Education lessons.
