How is everybody? No, that is not the question. My question is anyone who is in or been through college know are you suppose to get everything right of bat or does/might it take a few years to get the just of what you are being taught?

I am done with college and what I learned is that you need to learn how to learn. Learning how to learn is about learning what techniques work for you and what don't. You won't get everything right off the bat, but that doesn't mean that you cant get it. Sometimes it takes longer for you to understand, but once you get your base, you'll be off and running.

I teach at the college level. Many of my students do not understand everything the first time they hear it. Statistics show that the average person has to be exposed to the same information about 7 times before they commit it to memory. It helps if they are exposed a variety of different ways. (See it, hear it, read it, smell it, etc) More difficult subjects may take longer and things you have a particular aptitude for should come a little easier. Don't expect the information to just mysteriously make sense at some point down the road though. If you are having trouble, talk to your instructors, peers, or a tutor.

I'm in college right now and have realized that college is almost completely about life experience, not academics. Also, everybody learns at different levels, you should see me try and do math! : ) It would also depend on your grade level, if your a freshmen, you'll get there so don't worry.
