Academic Success

Part 1

My great academic success: in my principles of marketing class, we had to come up with a new product and sell it. My group ended up with a couple supposedly bad students according to our teacher since they were the last ones picked. In the end, they helped out more than needed since I was team leader I assigned them certain pieces of the project that became solely their responsibility. Delegating work always helps since it allows a group member individual work without separating the group.

English, math, foreign language tips: Math basically just takes practice. I always tell students to take a blank piece of paper and write everything you know about what you’ve learned or what you’re studying for in the class. If you don’t remember everything or start drawing blanks, then you need to study more and review your notes. Note cards work really well for foreign language here are my final words of wisdom for students who want to get better grades in college: Go to class, make friends with people in class just in case you’re absent, and remember that you should want to learn.

Heather A.’s Academic Success Story

 

In high school, I didn’t study much in groups as I do in high school. I feel I learn better when I can teach other people information and we can exchange notes taken in class because sometimes other students pick up on more important information than others.

 

My overall study method: I prefer to study in small groups and practice problems where I can work out the methods verbally with others. My test study method: I have very different techniques. For financial tests, I try to work on problems given in class as well as problems from power points and homework. When it comes to marketing classes, I review my notes and try to make diagrams to describe different processes.

 

My time management secret: one of my biggest secrets is to look over the information that you just learned when class is over. After reviewing the information, it sticks a little bit better than waiting until the night before the test.

 

How I deal with multiple projects/tests: I try to work on whatever has the shortest deadline and work from there. My overall study method: I tend to do massive studying blocks of about an hour or so in order to really learn the material.

Student Success Statement

“You have only always to do what is right. It will become easier by practice, and you enjoy in the midst of your of your trails the pleasure of an approving conscience.”

Robert E. Lee

Reflection:

When I think of it there are many good quotes but comparing this one to other’s this is very important because it focuses in doing the right things at all costs. Just by choosing to do what’s right at least trying you will go somewhere of instead doing you go backwards and under. Always follow your objectives and you will go beyond, but don’t come out denying your existence.

Part 5

After some serious soul-searching, Kennedy decided she was made for a purpose: to be successful and fulfill who she was desired to be. She returned to DCCC “with determination and a mindset that I would not fail with God leading me.”

She says her first semester back was difficult. “I knew I could find refuge in the Student Success Program, “Kennedy said. “To my benefit, Ms. Gravely accepted me back. Because of my struggles and hard times, I seek a new beginning every day and don’t allow the past to cripple my future. I have learned to have self-value.”

You Can Succeed in School If You Will

Part 3

As Quansheeba Kennedy review her DCCC transcript in preparation to transfer to Salem College, she can hardly believe she has a 3.3 grade point average and that she was accepted into the prestigious private college with a selective admissions policy.

It took two false starts before 22-year-old Thomasville resident found her true calling elementary education, and more importantly, before she found and reaffirmed the value of herself. She thought back to when she was only 18 years old but felt “overwhelmed by life.” She had just graduated from high school when she was in a serious car accident.

“I almost killed myself, not by drinking and driving not by partying but because I was living a life that was overwhelming,” she said. One must work hard, nut not waste time. Goofing off during school is a killer. It kills your achievement and your chances for outstanding success now and later.
