> I also didn't feel like my school treated me like a child

It depends on the subject in my experience.

At my school (major state university) undergraduate business school classes were run like high school. Attendance taken, assigned seats, pop quizes, etc.

Science and Math courses were most "adult" in their treatment of students.

Elective social sciences (100-level psych, sociology, history, political science, etc.) varied somewhere in between.

I completed all my English lit and writing requirements in high school so not sure how those classes worked things.

You're probably right. I took a few undergrad business courses when I went to college the first time. They were the most...regimented I guess is the best way to describe it. Every single section of the lower level business classes had their tests all together in a big 300 person auditorium on Saturdays. Upper level courses also required students to wear suits to class.

It's probably mostly a function of how much they feel the need to treat students like kids. Even though my university had a very highly ranked business school, business in general was kind of the refuge for people who wanted to go to college but weren't sure what they wanted to do.

I took 1103 instead of 1101 and 1102 because that was a thing you could do if your SAT score was high enough. It was much less high school like than the business classes. World Lit was an elective and it was nothing like high school, no attendance requirements, and no grades except for a 2 papers.
