W. P. Carey School Of Business Student Reflection

I am capable of being in honors because of my grades. This two quarters my English grade has been 95, which not only shows my ability of keeping up with work and doing and excellent job on it, but also my desire and willingness for learning more each day. I know that

Growing up I have always been told that my grades are important. School is my first priority and I believe that my grades along with other factors determine my future. Although my grades are not perfect, the mistakes that I have made on tests and in class have taught me to push myself to new heights because I am capable of achieving whatever challenges are thrown at me. If my friends invited me to go out on a school night, I wouldn’t go because I know that if I stay up late it would affect my ability to learn. Instead of going out, I would complete my homework and study for any upcoming tests. Besides grades, the SAT and the ACT are major contributors to my future. When I took the PSAT, I made sure that I went to bed early and was on time for the test because even though it was a practice exam, it showed what I needed to improve on for the real test. When I received my results I began preparing for the SAT that I’m taking in October. I purchased books that are full of practice exams and I have been tutored because I was not completely satisfied with my scores from the PSAT. Scholarship is extremely crucial because it shows not only how smart a person is, but also their work ethic.

The most important experience that has positively impacted my academic performance is being in AVID for the past 5 years. AVID is an acronym that stands for advancement via individual determination, a college preparatory class that helps prepare you for college, get organized, and set goals. I have been enrolled in AVID since 8th grade learning how to become a better student, improving study skills and the way I communicate with the students and teachers around me.

My scholarship can be seen through my grades at Wahconah. My grade point average has not dropped below a ninety-six in my freshman nor my sophomore year. I plan to keep this up heading into my junior year. With having these grades, I know that in the winter of my sophomore year, I was eleventh in my class. I know this because I had to send my transcript to a private school who was interested in me for lacrosse, and gained very much interest seeing my grades. I have kept my grades up while also maintaining a job at Kelly’s Package Store and playing lacrosse all year round. Therefore, my I excel academically at Wahconah and plan to do no different in the future.

We would like to congratulate your office on the first successful year of operating and maintaining Ryerson’s Student Learning Centre. When the announcement was made that Ryerson would be adding this state of the art facility to our campus we as students were ecstatic to experience a learning space which was truly unique. Although the Student Learning Centre has been extremely beneficial to all students Ryerson Students this far, we believe the space has not been used to its full potential.

At Norwalk Community High School, I am in the Top 12% of my class, earned a cumulative GPA of 3.6, received an Academic Bar and Honor Roll for past 3 years, and inducted into the National Honor Society. I have challenged myself in the classroom by taking several AP and community college classes which at this time I have earned 18 college credits. Outside of the classroom, I am involved in several activities: Football, Basketball, Tennis and Concert/Marching Band. I have lettered in Football and Basketball for the past 3 years, Tennis

Scholarship and learning are things I strongly value in my day-to-day life. I have completed my freshman and sophomore years so far with an unweighted GPA of 3.94 and a weighted GPA of 5.57. I’ve challenged myself in various Honors and

At this point in my college career, I have reached the limit as to what the Miami-Dade Honors College can offer me. So far I have pursued an Associate in Arts degree in Biology and am looking forward to the next step in my education. My experiences here have allowed me to grow heavily both as a student and an individual, but I am limited in the amount of resources currently available to me. For example, I do not have the variety of courses and study abroad opportunities that four-year college students have. Hence, I have taken all the science and math courses towards my associates degree at Miami-Dade College, but I am left to explore other options to continue to advance my preparation for a career in the science field. This is because I have

In my Junior year of highschool I took a total of eight college level courses through Central Ohio Technical College, and passed each one. This was a struggle for me due to personal issues, however I studied hard and pushed through. The summer before my senior year I took an online Statistics course offered by the same college, and attended the Camp 4 Scholars at Kenyon College. I spent three weeks on campus having making memories, having new experiences, and building my academic skills in a Behavioral Neuroscience course, as well as an African American History course. In this program I learned many skills and had my mind opened to the world beyond my hometown though hearing others’ stories. I then took another course offered by COTC, and am currently taking an American Studies course offered by Kenyon. I believe that I have pushed myself very far academically, in addition to my other

One of the interesting facts about these videos to me is that University of Phoenix produced and used challenge coin without the approval from the military just to trick veterans to believe that Department of Defense has looked and examined that organization and authorized them in some way to provide them with the

To begin, there are numerous scholastic achievements that have made me and my family proud. One of the most important scholastic achievement has been my acceptance to CSUSM. As a first generation college student, my acceptance and determination to pursue a higher education has become by far the most extraordinary scholastic achievement. Since my acceptance to CSUSM two years ago, I have been admitted to the Dean’s List three semesters. In high school, I received two years of presidential excellence for maintaining a 3.5 GPA and higher. As well, I was part of the National Honor Society in high school which has carried on to

After I turned in my application, I wasn’t sure that I wouldn’t be accepted. Due to the fact I didn’t even think my grades were even good enough to get a letter for any honor society. Eighth grade year wasn’t my best year, grade wise. I didn’t think I was capable of getting honor roll at all,let alone for a honor society. Which during my eighth grade year, they weren’t. But my freshman year I tried to get good grades. And getting that letter showed me that I was capable of As and Bs,maybe a C+ too. Just getting the letter was enough.

To prepare myself for this new chapter in my life, I have taken many steps to help prepare myself for the fall of 2017 at Morehead State. In the spring of 2017, I chose to transfer to a community college to help improve my grades and my GPA. (Seeing it went from a 1.3 to a 2.6).  I have talked with advisors that have helped to map out the rest of my college career to have me reach my goals. I have researched all courses needed for my intended major of Health and Physical Education. I know which credits I have already earned and which of those credits will successfully transfer over. I have taken a closer look and

I am aware that I do not posses the most impressive test scores, but I have much more to offer to your institution than high test scores. My involvement in various extracurricular activities has prepared me to be a very influential student on campus. To begin with, my involvement in student government as the class president for three consecutive years is a representation of my strong leadership skills, and my dedication to serve others. Next, my participation in Chicago Scholars and the National Honor Society are both testimonies to academic achievement despite of my test scores because these are both highly selective programs that look at academic achievement as a enrollment requirement. In addition, my two year dedication to the varsity

Although you already know this, My SAT score is far from exceptional. What you don’t know is I’ve been preparing myself for this test since before high school. Originally, my school took the ACT, so in middle school, students took the ACT practice exams. Though many students didn’t believe they were significant, I always tried my best, no matter what. In ninth grade, my school changed to the SAT, I then started preparing myself for that instead. Since elementary school, college has been my dream, resulting from my parents never finishing their education. I want to explain the work and dedication I put into these activities. I live twenty minutes from Swartz Creek, I commute there every day, multiple times due to extracurricular activities.
