I went from private to public and I experienced a HUGE change. One being the amount of work... Private schools actually have a good amount of work to be done over public schools, and the next being the change of atmosphere. They sort of shelter you at private school, trying to keep you from everything that's "bad" (or what they think is bad). When I switched to a public school I was totally unprepared, like a blast in the face... Going from the sheltered world to, as public schools more accurately portray, the real world. I would have much preferred going to public because the transition is big and the difference in sheltering vs non-sheltering definitely took time for me to adjust to. I was a very awkward person for a while.

In what way did the private school shelter you?
