9B Reflecting & Goals For The Future

I can not even believe that we already are half way through the semester! How crazy is that?! Well it is now time to reflect on how far I have come and some things I want to work on for the second half of the semester.

After looking at my grades on banner web I was satisfied with my grades so far except for one, that one being my microbiology class. This class is definitely a tough considering I am a nursing major. For me I think I have been doing better in my lab than in my lecture class. In my lab is all hands on things so it makes it easy to get things done and remember what we are learning considering it is all hands on and we are making samples of what we are learning. Right now I have a C- in the class as my midterm grade is not bad, but I definitely need to improve now unless I want to retake the class again. If I do not have a C+ or better in this class it will not count towards my nursing major and will have to take it again.

The way I am going to progress in this class is by start studying ahead of time of the exam time. For example, I have a lecture exam on Monday and I have already started studying the first chapter we learned and am studying one chapter each day in order to be as prepared as I can be for the exam. Right now it is crucial for me to do well on this lecture exam because if I do well it will bring up my grade and if I do well on my lab exam which I also have next week.

Another thing I need to work on is participating more in two of my class. I have B in both of these and I think if I participate more and show a little bit more of myself and my ideas can bring up more class discussions, and I think will help my grade go up. Over all, I am not disappointed with my grade, but it just shows me that I need to work a harder to get where I want to be.
