Time to step up my game


As the middle of my first semester came I had been starting to get lazy. My homework was starting to slip and my effort was declining. This shows in my midterm grades. My gpa is not as high as I would like it to be and there is definitely room for improvement.

Getting used to the new college grading scale is something I don’t exactly understand however I need to deal with it. In multiple classes that I take my midterm grade was based off of one test or one assignment. It’s difficult for me to agree with that because if you misunderstood the work or got a bad grade on that single assignment then your entire grade for that class is also going to be bad. This is something very different from high school. Normally there are multiple homework assignments and tests throughout the semester.

College has been a good experience for me so far. My organization has gotten better, my work ethics have improved and I’ve met great people however if I want to get my grades up to where I’d like them I really need to crack down, stop being so lazy and get my work done and in on time.

There is a class or two I know I have been struggling in and my grade definitely reflects that. To improve those grades I need to schedule meetings with my teachers to get some extra help. Overall my grades we not awful for my first half of the semester in college but they are not nearly as high as I’d like them to be.
