Student Success Statement

Student Success Statement
"Failure is only postponed success as long as courage coaches ambition. The habit of persistence is the habit of victory."
Herbert Kaufman

Reflection:  I believe this quote is to encourage us/ everyone to do their best. Failure is not an option, that's exactly why one shouldn't have to deal with the disappointment that failure puts in our lives. In order to live a good life, you must have good habits. Good habits will lead to positive vibes, your life will not only become simpler, but very enjoyable. Choose the right.

"I will persist...." pt.1


I Will Persist Until I Succeed

Part 1

Heather A.’s Academic Success Story

In high school, I didn’t study as much in groups as I do in college. I feel I learn better when I can teach other people information and we can exchange notes taken in class because sometimes other students pick up on more important information than others.

My overall study method: I prefer to study in small groups and practice problems where I can work out the methods verbally with others.

My test study method: I have very different techniques. For financial tests, I try to work on problems given in class as well as problems from power points and homework. When it comes to marketing classes, I review my notes and try to make diagrams t describe different processes.

My time management secret: One of my biggest secrets is too look over the information that you just learned when class is over. After reviewing the information, it sticks a little bit better than waiting until the night before the test.

How I deal with multiple projects/ tests: I try to work on whatever has the shortest deadline and work from there.

My overall study method: I tend to do massive studying blocks of about an hour or so in order to really learn the material.

CHOOSE THE RIGHT!
