Cst2410 Unit 2 Final Report

Decent Essays

1. What was the schedule of your final exams and how did you do (if your grades are in):

My final exams were evenly split out in two weeks. I had one final in the week of 15th and the other three in

the last week. Overall, I did great on my final exams, but there was one which I nearly failed. The Computer Security

(CST2410) final exam was only ten questions long, with 7 short response questions and 3 multiple choice questions.

The questions were really tricky, even after preparing hard for the exam. I got a "D" on the final exam in CST2410,

but a "B+" in the class. Other final exams were fairly easy. I got a 88 on Biology final, an "A" on Computer Systems

Management(CST2400) final, and I'm not sure what I got on Multimedia and Mobile(CST2301) final. …show more content…

What was the most challenging thing about this semester? Did you handle it well or did you let it get to you?

The most challenging thing about this semester was the class CST2410, Intro to Computer Security. There were

many obstacles in this class, such as long lectures which sometimes seemed too advanced for an intro class, and tough

assignments. There was a brief moment when I felt like giving up and dropping the class, but then I remembered an old

saying that giving up is not always the best option. In this case, if I had dropped the class, I would have had to

spend en extra semester on it. I spent countless hours teaching myself the topics that I had hard time learning in

class, and reviewed the notes. It was tough at first, but I gradually started to understand the topics more. I did

bad on the final, but doing well on the assignments and projects allowed me to boost my grade.

3. How would you measure your strengths and weaknesses over the semester?

In this semester, my strengths included having prior knowledge to assist me in the classes. An example of

this is CST2400, Computer Systems Management, which required the students to have an understanding of Windows
