HIS 110 A

INQ 101 B

MAT 107 F

MDS 101 C

My goal for the end of the semester is to go up in a letter grade in every class. I wish to be able to get my math grade to a c+ or better. I believe that I will be able to achieve this goal. I am going to work even harder and longer on all my work. I will study harder for tests and not settle for anything less then an A on all my projects. I believe I will be able to get my math from an F to greater then a C+. I also believe that I need to start doing better on these blogs. I need to start them earlier and not do them all in one day. It is also a little difficult taking six classes and not five so next semester I am going to take five so I have more time to focus on my studies.

I have started going to the math lab twice a week and now that I only have softball practice once a week I will be able to go more if needed. I also spoke to my math professor and he told me that he drops the lowest test grade at the end of the year. We have only taken one test that I failed and that is the reason why I am failing my math class. This class is a requirement for my major and the only math I need. If I pass this math class I will not have to take a math class ever again which makes me want to get a good grade not just the C+ I need to get the credits. Knowing that if I do good in this math class knowing it would be my last math class that I will ever have to take helps me stay self motivated.

            I am proud of myself for getting an A in my history class. History has always been one of my weakest subjects since the 7^th grade. In the 7^th grade I needed a tutor for history and have used the same tutor up until the 12^th grade. He is the reason why I passed history all these years. This is my first year without his help and knowing that I have an A in history all on my own is a great feeling. I was scarred that I wasn’t going to be able to do good without his help. I was also scarred that being in a lecture hall was going to be hard to concentrate. I have trouble concentrating with my ADD now in a regular classroom so that’s why I thought I would have an even harder time in the lecture hall. I hope to keep up the good work the rest of the semester in this class.
