Answer 1

i never been to catholic school and i'm not catholic but public school is more diverse..filled with pressure, maybe bully's but some great people to meat just don't get mixed in with the wrong crowd and don't follow anyone either plus it will b filled with pointless drama be careful and good luck my advice focus on the work

Answer 2

Well, there's lots of ways to explain it, I suppose. I can't really say an opinion, because everyone has a different one.

You have a lot of cliques, people who hang out with other of the similar people. I'm sure you have some at your school. There are tons...and very very annoying.

People of the opposite gender will probably tend to annoy you, I know boys annoy me. :-)

I don't think it would be much different. Obviously, it wouldn't focus nearly as much on religious ideas as much as the general sciences and history.

If the school is big, its hard to get to and from classes, probably another thing you know.

A lot of social action going on. A lot more then most private schools, from what I hear, though I haven't been to one.

I guess its something you just have to experience. No one can really "describe" public school.

And you will make friends, I'm sure. Good luck!
