the worst semesters for me in comparison to my entire college education. I returned back to college after leaving for six years. I started back spring 2016 at Cuny Hostos . I took 5 classes in the spring and Fall and one class over the summer. I maintained a GPA over 3.0. I had 3.54 the spring, I passed my summer class and I maintained a 3.94 for the fall . I transferred from there due to the distance and I attended my first semester at Brooklyn College. So many elements affected me and I must
Being of Indian descent, my parents had always pushed me to pursue a degree in Biology. But, I did not personally fall in love with it until my fourth year at Rutgers. I started my freshman year taking courses just to fill the requirements for my degree. I didn’t even declare my major until my third year because my heart nor my mind was focused on what I was doing. My initial interest in Biology came from taking Cell Biology during the Fall of 2012. This class opened a door to a world I never knew
Writing has never been one of my strengths. Even in high school, when I took an AP English literature course, I did not enjoy writing papers if need be. Since I did not fancy writing papers, I never developed a systematic writing process. I would write the paper last minute and pray for an A, but college doesn’t work like that. When I came to college, I placed into music classes first so that I could develop those skills, thus leaving my core classes (including English) on the backburner. Although
always have a good reputation, they are misrepresented in media and by uninformed people. One way to combat such misconceptions is for teachers to continue advocating for the utmost highest educational standards. This semester, on my journey to become an educator, I encountered three major themes that have been a persistent in factor in my school observations, in selected novels, in lecture, and in the required text for this course. Those areas are how the

however, I do not think that I did any of these things to help my students succeed.I took this workshop course as a last class before
I’m Audrey Roberts and this is the fifth POL I’ve done in my life. This semester, the ESLRs helped me become a better college applicant by improving my study skills and time management as well as being able to communicate with teachers. The ESLRs also encouraged my creativity and technological skills. I prepared for college in a variety of ways this semester. I conducted college searches in Advisory in order to track down colleges that best match my criteria and heard college representatives talk
1. Explain why you would like to participate in the SAU Guatemala Semester. As a Spanish minor, I am required to study abroad in a Spanish speaking country for at least three weeks, however, I want to spend an entire semester in Guatemala. The reason for this is because I believe that the best way for me to learn the Spanish language is to be immersed in it as much as possible and for as long as possible. I am also beyond excited to participate in this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity so that I can
“What do you want to be when you grow up?” My family always asked me. If I were doing what I thought I would be doing when I was a kid, I would be in Hollywood by now. I would be on the must see Thursday night comedy/drama show. This was my life long dream until I hit eighth grade I realized I was camera shy. So like everyone else it was onto the next passion, right? It took me until high school to appreciate how strong my passion for space was. Every night I would stare at the moon, more and more
under. Although you may not know me, if you look back at my grade history, this is not the student I am. I am a student who strives to work hard, and to do the ultimate best of my abilities. I usually beat myself up over homework and test grades. Throughout my career at Minot State University, my GPA never fell below a 3.70, I have been on the Dean’s/President’s Honor Roll since Fall of 2015. The only problem semester I have had previously was my first semester as a Freshman, and that was all about
