Work Together
Part 3
Here are my final words of wisdom for students who want to get better grades in collage: A big thing that not many will say is to ask for help if you needed it. Its not a bad thing to understand, it’s a bad thing if you don’t do anything about it. Plan you time out so you are completing everything that needs to get done and leave time to double check. Write things down and have good time management skills. Ask for help is probably the biggest thing I can say though. If you don’t understand, go to office hours or find a classmate that does understand and is willing to help you. If you try hard, it will come to you. I find myself thinking that I have to try harder to fail than try to succeed. It’s something that is within me to succeed. If that is not who you are, then hopefully things that I have done can show you that success is something that is amazing to find! Good Luck!

 Work Together Part 2


Work together


Part 2


English, math, foreign language: For math, all I can say is to do the problems assigned. It is the only way to practice and that’s really all it is for math. It’s the same for chemistry; if you do the practice problems you will understand the material so much better because those subjects are not just memorization like history, you need to be able to apply what you have learned in practical situations. As for English, I am no longer taking it, but I would say to leave yourself plenty of time to write essays and papers. They take time to get all the information out of your head and into the page, so don’t leave them until the last second.

Work Together Part 1

Work Together Part 1
I can and will work as part of the team as long as everyone in the team is willing to do his work. I don’t like having to pick up the stack, but I will if I know that my grades will be harmed otherwise. My greatest academic success was in my first semester when I had to write a 10-12 page research paper. It was the longest paper I had ever been assigned and I was a little scared. Also, it was the first paper where they were like, here you go, just write about something. I had to argue in favor of or against something, but it could be anything from the sky is blue to hypnotism. I wrote mine on hypnotism. I worked on this paper for weeks and weeks. Every night I would be doing research or writing. I put so much effort into this paper. It ended up being just under 12 pages but it was full on information. I turned it in and when I got it back a week or so later, I had received the first A+ of my college career. All my hard work paid off because I got the grade I deserved. I was really happy and proud of myself.

Student Success Statement Student Success Statement The reflection on tiger woods: I think that Tiger woods should not be giving his brother a hard time just because he has a disease. I thing that Tiger should be a helpful brother because he had millions of dollars and his brother doesn’t and it is only just one thing that his brother would ask for his help in a family situation.

You can succeed every day

Part 1

My overall study method: I broke up studying over several days and over the course of the evening day. Cramming never works for me so I try not to do it. I will have longer sessions on night before  test. I know that if I take the test tired the next day I will not do it as well as if I was rested.  

How I’ve overcome an initial bad grade: I usually look over the test on paper to see what I did that the teacher did not want. Basically, I do not stress out about grades that much because for me there not worth getting all upset about. I do well because I know that I know the material. However, if I do get a bad grade, or one lower than I expected, I make sure that the next time a test comes around I study even more so that I won’t be surprised by the question.

Effective Study Methods Part 3

How I deal with multiple projects tests. When I have more than one test or project, I break up my studying. I will study for one test for 50 minutes or so and then switch to the other one. If there is some part of a project that I know will not take me very long. I will do it when I don’t have much time. If I am really in a crunch for time on a specific day, I will study for one test in the morning and the other in the afternoon or at night. By breaking up the studying into different sections, I feel like I get much more done. Cram sessions do not work for me. I need to study something for a shorter period of time more often for it to sink in.
