For me, basically the only two things wrong with this college is the location and the lack of women.

However, these two things are so fucked up, that it's not even funny. I swear to God, I've been to frat parties where the guys are boasting that there's 'girls coming'. It's that sad.

Everyone is absorbed into their world of warcraft or their rockband or their counterstrike or whatever. If you're one of those Star Wars dudes, this place will be heaven for you. But I encourage you to not go there and get a life instead.

When I heard about this college back in India, I was like,

AWESOME! FLORIDA!! DAYTONA!!! Its going to be great!

Well, surprise surprise, the place sucks donkey balls. SO much so, that even my professors told me that its the dullest, deadest city they've ever lived in.

In my first couple of weeks, I thought that I would suck it up for 4 years without chicks too, but trust me, that vacuum creates an avalanche. It's like, there is 0 fun because its just well…gay to go out in an all guys group, so people just end up not going out at all. This leads to an overall depressing, dull, and incredibly drab atmosphere which makes you want to kill yourself.

Some courses are shit easy - like this one I had with a near deaf professor. He couldn't hear anything so we would openly ask each other questions without moving our lips during the tests, haha.

On the other hand, most other classes are incredibly hard, and challenge you A LOT. There's just a huge amount of work to be done always.

Like someone said, half of the guys I got to know in the first semester transferred out (like me), and the other half want to.

I am yet to meet a person who LIKES living in Daytona.

Trust me, don't go.
