Why Is It Important To Pursue An A?

For the past few years I have aced all my classes and dutifully earned myself all A’s consecutively. I plan on continuing this accomplishment as a freshman and throughout my four years of high school. I’m not just getting straight A’s to give myself a pat on the back and free ice cream, but to reward myself the satisfaction of being able to go to college and reach a goal that would give me a deeper purpose in life and a clearer view of my path for the future. I have also engaged myself in community service, extra credit, and I am preparing

I understood medical terminology very well, so I made a 100 overall for the first semester. I finished my temple college dual credit English class with a 95 and my dual credit United States history class with an 80. Though I struggled at the end of the first semester of pre-cal, I was able to end the first semester of it with an 88 due to the amount of time I spent out of class practicing the concepts we learning in class; I had the same struggles with physics throughout the entire semester, but ended with an 81 and stayed in the class this semester in hopes of understanding it more this time around. I also finished Bel Canto, choir, with a 100 because I followed directions and paid attention to the goal of sweepstakes at UIL. Overall, I'm proud of the grades I achieved during the first semester of all of my classes and hope to keep that up during the second

I also feel more prepared after these first two classes. For me it is a difficult transition to go from one school to another. Not only am I learning a whole new website and trying to figure out where everything is, but I am also learning the Chromebook and APA formatting. I do feel more comfortable with it as the weeks continue

I learned from my various courses that you cannot get discouraged when you know that you have a lot on your plate those are the times to rise above and to focus. Making sure everything was completed in a timely manner and to an above average standard was very important especially in my college courses. When you do not put the amount of effort needed it shows in the final product, I always want my product to look like I did my best no matter what it might be. Coming in from middle school it was easy to skate by and do everything at the last minute and still get perfect scores but now that I am being academically challenged those methods no longer work. I am very grateful for being able to have the opportunity to attend the STEM Early College at NC A&T because it is preparing me for my future

One of the greatest things about early college in my opinion, is the level of difficult learning that comes along with it. Having taken an AP class I am now more familiar with the speed that a college course progresses, very fast. Along with these classes progressing very quickly, a college student is forced to take in a huge amount of information. These factors create an environment in which a student such as myself has to be very focused on what they are learning, and must study the material further in order to fully grasp all of it. Along with an AP courses, I have always taken honors classes, which leads me to believe that I am prepared to encounter the speed of college classes.

This semester has flew by a lot faster than I anticipated. The akron experience has taught me quite a bit that has helped me in many different areas. Being successful in college to me means to organize and manage all the parts of your life so that you are content. College is alot to keep track of and managing this and the rest of your life is the main thing that will keep you going so you are able to take breaks. Without breaks you will get burned out and I learned this pretty fast. I would say I was successful this semester even if my grades weren't exactly where I wanted them I am getting the feel for the whole experience.

Like as stated before I have maintain my grades, I have all A’s and that makes me feel great. I’m ended off my first ever semester in Middle school with all A’s. Some classes have been harder than others but I have always tried my best

I didn’t get an A on the next midterm, but that didn’t matter. I had three weeks left to raise my grade, and that day was about my commitment and work ethic. When the semester ended, I managed to get 95% on my third midterm and my final, and overall got a B+. This past fall semester, I aced Chemistry 2 while being in the top 10% of my class. It is from this experience that I had developed a strong appreciation for work ethic and personal commitment to fulfill the challenging tasks in college and later in medical

As a college student I expect myself to accomplish all work with the best of my abilities. There is no point in doing work that isn’t your best work. I also expect myself to dream big and try new things. College is all about finding what you love to do. Even though I am very content with my life and trying new things can be difficult, breaking out of your norm and trying new things can help better yourself.

I have never been faced with the challenge of receiving an A- in a class, let alone a B+. However, if I do come to face that grade, I want to look back and say that I gave everything I had, worked my hardest, and pushed myself farther than ever before to earn that grade. I don’t want to receive an A- or a B+ because I could’ve put more work into something I slacked off on. Although, maybe it will be good for me to not get an A.

College is worth the overestimated cost because graduates are more likely to obtain a job than those without a college level education and because the majority of college graduates are satisfied without their education as a whole.

I was terrified and expected the class to make me miserable. Almost all my assumptions about the class were proven wrong once I started it. The teacher was kind and did an excellent job easing the class into a language that was more foreign to us than any of the other options. Everything seemed to be fine, except for one thing: Chinese characters. No matter how much the teacher helped us, I thought learning Chinese characters was nearly impossible. I had no idea what I was doing when it came to reading and writing characters. I managed to learn more characters as the year progressed, but it was a

For starters, I am entitled to an “A” because I set a goal and achieved it by improving my essay writing skills. Which, I have been able to so by learning different writing techniques, staying focused, and striving towards academic success. I have excelled well throughout the whole course by making it a priority of being in class everyday in the end, I was able to receive all of the writing skills that were taught and put them to use. Also by being in class every day I was able to get all key information needed for writing a good essay. I made sure to arrange all other things in my life around my class

First of all, on my first day at college, I knew everything was going to be different. Because college is not the same as high school, and we can choose between being full-time or a part-time student. In other word, we have more choices in our schedules. Then I realized that I had to manage my time with homework and work. Being a freshman student can be hard, because when I was a new student, I had a hard time with my schedule. For example, I was late for classes. Also, I had to choose between working on my project and spending time with my friends. In addition, I had to read my books to understand the material presented in class.

As a junior in high school I started my first college level courses. I went in with an uncertain mindset of how I would do like many students in this situation would. All I had heard from upper classmen was that the classes were extremely difficult and that there was a lot of challenging work that needed to be done throughout
