I feel like I’m the only one who didn’t have it that hard in uni... anyone?

I’ve only done one year so far but I did my shit early instead of waiting until the last minute and it wasn’t too bad, not sure about the rest of my time but we’ll see

I mean like, I also didn’t find the material that hard. Just keep up with the classes and you should be fine. Just don’t skip a bunch and fall behind.
About to graduate engineering school... Ive always been the guy who did his project last minute, but I thrive under pressure, enjoy pulling all nighters (thats how I get the most work done), and always considered that a week or two of absolute mayhem at the end of a semester was worth it for the possibility of jerking off the rest of the time.
So yeah, theres pressure at the end if you procrastinate, but nothing to cry about at the library.
I've got a master's degree in palaeontoloy, that I got almost without working. I would do the assignments last minute and read most of the classes material in the evening before finals -when I could be arsed to, otherwise I just rolled with it and logic'ed my way out.
However now I took back studies in history of art and cultural heritage, in another college and damn. That one I can't get throuth without trying x') The only free time I get is 6 hours of sleep and the occasional dentist appointment. The projects we have you really CAN'T physically do last minute. But I like it because it gives me the impression that hard work is recognized, which I need otherwise I fall down a spiral that ends up with "why even do anything anyways it's all useless".
In the end, I think the college you're in makes more difference than your personality in the way you perceive this experience.
The two classes I really had to effort in where Advanced French Comp 1 and MedChem 1. I passed and spent most of my nights studying for them, but I just barely passed. That's about it
