Overcoming Obstacles For A Student

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

I have had to face many obstacles in my life. I have learned that every obstacle can either make you stronger or brake you. If overcoming the obstacle were easy, everyone would do it quickly and without any difficulties. It is the joy of overcoming the obstacles that makes everything so much worth it. In my case every obstacle has had a purpose. Three unforgettable obstacles that I have overcome are my childhood, an abusive domestic violent relationship, and jail time.

Describe the most challenge you have faced and the steps you have taken to overcome this challenge. How has this challenge affected your academic achievement?

The first obstacle had to face are my parent divorce. When this obstacle happened I was depressed and not do that good in school. My aunt had to take to with her friend that was an therapist I only went for one day, when it finish the therapy I realized that my life is not over just for a dilema. I was more relief and more ambitious to do all my work and pass all of my classes. The second obstacle is that I would struggle at school is turning in my work late when it was due the next day. Then, I had to overcome it by, making an agenda to keep my work on track and test to study for the agenda really helped me alot. My last dilemma is that I would work during school because me and my family depend on my dad sending money when sometime he wouldn't send us money. Me and my bigger sister would always try to find a job to help my mom to pay bills etc. Another obstacle is trying my best to have good grade and study in a correct way. I try to keep up my grade but sometimes it's hard. I sometimes

In my life, I have faced many obstacles and have had to rise above those obstacles. The one that was the hardest for me is when I had to transfer from Believers Fellowship Academy the school was almost ready to shut down and was struggling to survive and didn’t make it one. I had to transfer to Sturgis Brown High School. When I went to talk to the counselor with my mother I found out that I would have to take a test for every class that was a requirement freshman year. To go into the year that I was supposed to go into which was my sophomore year I would have to either retake those classes, take these test, or enter into a brand new school where I knew about three people as a freshman. I was already old for my class age if I went into a sophomore

Throughout my life I have faced adversity that has made life challenging at times. It may have been hard to deal with, but it has made me strong and shaped me to be the man I am today. I know that adversity is simply a part of life and everybody will come across it, but how you handle it and overcome it is what truly builds your character.

During my senior year of high school, I encountered many obstacles. One of the biggest obstacles was certainly applying to colleges and figuring out what I wanted to major in. It was a task I needed to complete on my own. My parents did not go to college, so they were helpless in the application process. I was also under the impression that my older sisters were going to assist me, but they were too busy with their own classes and work. The pressure was on, and time was ticking. I knew if I waited too long that I was going to hinder my chances of going to college at all and become a disappointment to my parents.

The obstacles I met over the last three years are grades and shyness. I learned to overcome these obstacles by studying and joining the class of 2017 club. These experiences will impact my ability to problem solve ahead because they helped me survive. Also, they make me grow as a person.

I have overcome lots of obstacles in my life. They weren't the easiest to overcome, but I did it. There is one obstacle I had to go through which made me a strong individual mentally and physically. I lived in New Jersey for my entire life. I grew up there, I had all of my family and friends in Jersey. I was sure my future was going to rely in Jersey. During 7th grade, I got the news that we were going to move to North Carolina. I was thrilled to move to another state. As each day passed, I thought how I would have to start in a new school and make new friends. Every time it struck me knowing that I would have to start a new life. I was nervous not knowing what would happen to my future. I wanted to stay in New Jersey because I was scared of

Being a freshman in college, I set impractical and unrealistic goals for myself. Throughout the year, I had to overcome various obstacles to strive in meeting the goals I had set out for myself. One of my goals during the first year of college was to earn a 4.0 GPA. I thought this would be an easy feat as I was able to academically grow throughout my academic career—excelling from being roughly a 2.6 GPA student to roughly a 4.0 GPA student. One of the biggest obstacles I had to face was taking exams. In high school, I did not need to prepare for exams as much as I do in college. I underestimated my midterms and finals as I did not know that I had to study at least a week ahead of time in order to obtain suitable grades. In high school, I was able to study one or two nights beforehand and still manage to achieve high grades.

Overcoming these obstacles has made me a mature and strong individual. I am proud of what I have accomplished, even with the hardships that I have had to face and my biggest goal is to make my parents proud.

My biggest obstacle was August 1, 2005 when our apartment building caught fire. My Mother, Brother, Sister, and I were home, it was the most distressing thing I've ever had to encounter. The night of my Aunt's birthday a fire started and the smoke made me feel as if I was drowning. My cousin Kendrick Weber woke me up, because I wasn't waking up when my sister tried. He pulled me out through the window and my forehead

Many of us have faced challenges in our lifetime that we have struggled with. Some of those challenges may have even changed who we are as a person, or even our own view-on-life. Going threw obstacles are a big part of our life. Each person has over-came them in their own way. I have gotten through many obstacles in my life that have changed me as a person. When you succeed at something you become very proud of yourself and even honored. I have over-came my shyness and insecurities and developed much more confidence.

Life is not always a straight path, and most of the time there are ridiculous obstacles in the way. Individuals handle life differently than others. Certain people handle problems badly, but others handle problems just fine. Some acceptable ways people overcome adversity is by embracing differences, having a positive attitude, and persevering to get through the obstacles/problems.
