Gpa Reflection Examples

One time I experienced failure was when I was trying out for an indoor field hockey league. The field hockey league had three different teams, the academy (the lowest), elite (the middle team), and high-performance (the highest). I was very eager to begin the indoor field hockey season and I had high hopes that I would make the highest team. On the day of tryouts, I had a major case of butterflies in my stomach but I was still eager to start the season. However, as soon as I stepped on the field the nerves began to take over my whole body and I became quite timid. I did ok in the skills portion but when it came to the scrimmage I chickened out a bit. The girls trying out were big and strong and had amazing skills and I instantly began to think I was

A time that I experienced failure was when i failed my Algebra II class for first semester. My biggest error was that I didn’t retake my quizzes that i failed when i had the chance too. The first 3 months i didnt really tried, I would tell myself that I had a lot of time for the semester to end. However, i regretted it when i found out that i only had a few weeks for the semester to end. I stressed out the last weeks, I couldn’t go to sleep in the night. I would keep thinking of my grade and how i was going to fail the class. I knew that colleges were gonna see my grades for this year, my junior year. I really want to go to college, I want to make my parents proud. The last weeks, i did everything that i could. I did all the missing homework, and I tried to

Failure is a part of life. While many see failure as a negative thing, I have started to see it as a situation that can make you a better person. Failure drives me to never make that mistake again. I first realized this when I took my first AP class and AP exam and received a score of 2. This journey all started sophomore year when I took AP World History. I quickly learned that I needed to actually read and take notes to be able to succeed in the class. It took a few poor grades on essays and tests for me to understand this. Despite this new revelation, I still struggled in the class. When it came time to start reviewing and preparing for the exam, I put an immense amount of effort, but not as hard as I should’ve been. Exam day came and

I have learned how to ask better questions and to talk to my teachers when I need help or do not understand the concept well. I make sure that I have a relationship with my teachers and introduce myself at the beginning of each semester. Learning how to communicate with my teachers

Throughout this experience I have learnt a great deal about the Graduate Teachers Professional Assessment (GTPA) Standards and how the data I collect and analyse are undepinned by the components stated in this document. This culminating statement, clarifies key insights into the 4 components and how evidence produced aligns with and consequently effects teaching, learning decisions and student results. Six months ago, I had not heard of the GTPA standards, however, now due to my newly developed understanding. Via developing a deepening understanding. I have come to realize the importance of unpacking and understanding the requirements for the GTPA Standards (GTPA, 2017).

One thing I’ve learned that really hurt me was that I tended to procrastinate and it wasn’t until late senior year until I noticed how bad it hurt me.  Another thing I learned was to read the directions very carefully.  When a teacher assigns you work they expect you to do it to their standards and to do that you have to read

My first failure discouraged me to the point where, I felt like I would never reach an advanced math level again. The lack of self-confidence that resulted from my sub-par math scores soon began to negatively affect some of my other classes. I quickly realized that the trend had to stop. I worked diligently to achieve what, at the time, seemed unattainable. My change in the outlook of my repeated failures helped me to finally succeed. Throughout the course of the last two years, I have grown more self-aware in my study habits. I push myself even harder when I think I have done the best I can.

Failure is a missed opportunity, poor test grade, or missing the game-winning goal. Depending on its scale, certain failures can cause one individual to cry and another to shake it off. In school, one individual's failure is another one's success. I experience failure like this but at a different scale because to me, failure is more than disappointing my parents or teachers. I feel like I am defined by that failure, and that it will never vanish. This particular failure defines me and will stay with me throughout my school years.

Failure can feel devastating when you are living through the experience. I felt this way during one of the greatest failures in my life, failing to qualify for State History Day in my junior year of high school. This was my third History Day competition and I had previously qualified for State. While I entered the event with confidence from previous competitions and a final product that I thought was close to perfect, experiencing failure this time taught me how to strive for the best that I can be, persevere through tough times, and that sometimes your best isn't always the best.

As you will see I received a 493 on my MCAT exam, this was a low score which did not reflect my efforts to prepare for the exam.However, this number does not exemplify my potential as a student and a future phsyician. Although numbers can predict trends, none of these number my MCAT nor GPA show the individual I am and the type of physician I will become. While I may not be able to retake my MCAT now, I can assure you that I will be a phsyician with a patient-centered care focus primarlity in underserved populations. I ask that you look beyond my score and to me as an applicant. I am confident that with my background, experiences and education at Howard Univeristy College of Medicine, if I am granted the opportunity, I will become a competent,

There are two things that go into making an excellent scholarship candidate, and they are a person’s overall GPA and their service to the community. Caring about others is an imperative attribute to a nurse’s career. I recognize that my weakness is my grade point average only being a 3.17 at this point in time, but my leadership, community service dedication, and adaptability capabilities are very strong. For example, my first semester as a peer tutor, I was asked to take on a tutee that has a medical condition disabling his ability to read and write. This was a task that many did not want to take on, but I have a lot of respect for the person I tutor and they are doing very well. I had to learn to adapt to their style of learning and read

When people fail at something once, they will do everything in their power from failing again. Failure is a strong motivator in school and in life. If a student fails a class, their grade point average, the student will have to repay and retake the class, they will

The first thing I learned is that always check the things I have done in both math problems and issues I meet in my daily life. It is always a good habit to check after I have done something, because it could be right and it also could be wrong something. People can not make sure they will do thing 100% correct, a small fault is unavoidable. For example, a math problem: x^2+3=4. The answer is 1! I got my answer. I used to think the answer I got for this kind of easy question is always right, there is no exception. Now, I am not thinking like that because I

The classes I have taken have taught me how I learn the best and how to study more effectively. Many students are verbal learners, meaning they learn best by listening to material given to them. I, on the other hand, learn best by doing the activity myself. I never knew this fact about myself until after a very brutal physcology class. Also, college is said to be all memorization. I now know from experience that to pass and receive the degree being chased after, good study habits are a must. The very first test I took in college, I failed miserably. Being able to study in an effective way for an individual is the main way to keep the grades

What I didn’t learn from my highschool class is how to properly set goals. I didn’t know that there was a process and I didn’t realize how helpful it is writing down goals and physically seeing them. I was able to learn S.M.A.R.T goals which helps you structure your goals to a achievable standard. I also learned the different types of goals like long term, short term, and immediate. I learn how important goal setting can be and how it helps you better achieve them.
