Recommended: The importance of academic success
In the first quarter, my goals were mostly to just pass my classes with at least a B and since I started school a little late, I wanted to catch up with my work and bring up my grades because I was behind and failing most of my classes during the first few weeks. I also wanted to try and not get in trouble in my classes as much and I did not want to get detention. I met my first goal of bringing up my grades in all my classes from failing to passing and I am passing all of my classes with a B and above. I did not really meet my second goal of not getting in any kind of trouble because I got detention during the first quarter. I think some challenges for this new quarter is keeping track of my work and homework and keeping my grades up. Another
My Senior year in High School has officially begun, only one more year at Corona High. I know that Senior year is supposed to be fun, but I believe every year is an opportunity to improve. I have already set my goals for this school year. I believe I can achieve a GPA of 4.0 or above. However, there are some personal goals that I need to complete first. I need to stop my terrible habit of procrastinating. Another goal of mine is to pass my AP tests so I can earn college credit. I also want to learn new things, so I started to learn the basics of Coding, now I need to finish this course. These are some things I look to accomplish this year.
Similar to the quote Rev. Hawes said, my goal is not simple and will not be easy to reach. I will this school year will pass all my test, exams, and quizzes.My obstacle would be to get into the habit of studying and look back at my notes more. After that I would want to pay more attention in my class. Then I want to get into the habit of writing notes over again. Finally I want to take all the techniques I learned and use it to pass my quizzes and tests. I would like to make my first step to be August through September.
Goals give you something to measure yourself against and give you direction. Currently, my main goal is to graduate from East Carolina University with a bachelor’s degree of science in engineering with a concentration in biomedical engineering. My anticipated time to graduation is five years with a GPA of 3.5 or higher. Beyond getting my bachelor’s degree at East Carolina University, I would like to go to medical school and become a doctor focusing on prosthetics. In order to make my goals a reality, I will have to work diligently to remain on track throughout my schooling. Additional goals that I have set for myself are to complete homework assignments by the time they are due, reading assigned material before it is discussed in class, doing well in each of my courses this semester, successfully participating in extracurricular activities, graduating with a bachelor’s degree in engineering, getting a position as an engineer, and becoming a leader within both the engineering community and the general community. A world-class engineering student woul...
Starting off this semester, I had an idea on what I wanted to accomplish in this class. With the goals I’d set for myself, I believe I had made a huge step in the right direction. My fitness goals were, to walk or ride my bike 3-5 miles every day and to lose 2-3 pounds every week by the end of the semester. For my nutrition goals, I wanted to only eat fast food on the weekend and to drink eight glasses of water every day by the end of the semester. Finally my stress management goals were to write down all the thoughts that caused worry or stress and after a stressful situation listen to ASMR videos to help relax. However, as the semester went on I noticed that several of these goals were not being met. It was a huge disappoint for myself, but at the end of the semester I realized that these goals
I have an MD degree, Doctor of Medicine, and now I would like to further specialize in Clinical Anatomy, a sub-discipline of medical science. Fortunately, through the American Association of Anatomists’ website I found a list of graduate programs in anatomy available in the United States. Based on findings from the online research I conducted, I believe that with a Master’s degree in Clinical Anatomy, the possibilities for my future plans as an anatomy teacher and researcher are guaranteed.
It is sad how my expectations have gone down with every year of high school, but I guess that is just what the real world is all about. I started my freshman year out talking about wanting to be a doctor or a scientist or a millionaire. I am about to leave high school not having a clue on what I want to do with my life. I has been hard to observe my grades going from practically straight A's as a freshman to the sad state of nearly having my credits denied this senior year. But now that I know that one has to face the responsibilities for every decision one makes, I might be ready to make some smart ones.No, I do not think that I can become a brain surgeon or a world-renowned scientist or, unless I win the lottery, a millionaire but I can try to do my best to become all that I can be with the options that I have.
My goals and aspirations after high school currently revolve around going to college and getting there myself.
When I was asked the question what I wanted to be when I grow up I
My progress this nine weeks has been exceptional in a positive way due to the amount of time I have to my work. My goal for a final grade was a 90% or higher. Although I’m currently resting a 96 I have a final and some participation grades that will be put in the grade book soon. Therefore I have a good chance at making my final grade goal.
On June 3rd, 2015, I found out that I didn’t get my diploma. Any and all kinds of emotions were going through my head. So much can change when you don’t receive your diploma. I had all the requirements to get my diploma, except for the FCAT. This one test was holding me back from chasing my dream, but I wasn’t going to let it stop me.
As a child and even as a teenager one tends to make dreams and set goals for life. On occasion these goals are far stretched and sometimes even fairy-tale like, we tend to see life through a rose-colored glass, not taking into account the many sidetracks life throws our way. At that stage in life our goals tend to be less focused and somewhat unreachable. However, the process of growing up, or maturing, tends organized and center our goals, we learn to make compromises and set goals for our goals. There are different types of goals, short term and long term. I have learned to separate the many goals I have into three main categories: family, professional and personal.
What I plan for my future is to create the ultimate game room. I want to be able to create this space that I am able to invite friends over, and watch movies or play games. I want have a place where I can walk in and be impressed by my achievements. My goal in the future is to create the ultimate game room, according to my standards, by viewing how other people have created theirs, and comparing it to my process.
An obvious goal as a working adult returning to school is, of course, to earn a degree. My overall goal is no different than any other student, however, I also have several personal goals I hope to achieve while attending the University. Some of these goals are to acquire new skills and enhance my current business abilities, to apply what I learn in the classroom to forward my career, and to feel personal satisfaction of finishing something I started.
Everyone should have personal goals that evolve around anything that needs to be accomplished. I set goals on a daily basis. One goal that I seem to have not truly focused on has been my college education. Considering all things, I decided I needed to focus on my college education. The first thing I needed to accomplish was to enroll in an institution for higher learning. Now that my enrollment is complete, I am an official student at the University enrolled in the undergraduate program for business management. As a student at the university, I now have to set personal goals so that I will be successful in my endeavors. My personal goals are to gain personal growth and development and graduate from my undergraduate program in business management with honors. After my completion of the undergraduate program I will then move on to a master's program.
Going to college has always been a dream of mine. To some people that may seem strange, but for me it’s been a dream. I’m the first person on my dad’s side of the family to attend a four year university, and I plan on being the first one to graduate. I came to college for more than just that, however. College is going to help me more in life than I realize. It’s going to make me into the person that I’ve always wanted to be, and the degree that I get will get me the job that I’ve wanted since I was fourteen years old. I have faced some obstacles getting here, but I know it will all be worth it once I get my degree.
