My Spring Semester Plan for Improvement
Time is my enemy. Most college deadlines have passed, and I have either received acceptance letters or am waiting for the last to arrive. Through intense perseverance I managed to earn a B and an A in my English class for the first and second 9 weeks, respectively. In the wake of an extremely diligent fall semester, the reality that May is rapidly approaching comes crashing down on my exhausted mind. I intend to use the two weeks away from school for Christmas break wisely. The troubles of last year are ingrained in my memory as I overcame a learning “slump” and managed to pass the English Language and Composition course, only to make a 3 on the AP Exam. The feeling that I passed meant nothing to me, as I discerned that many colleges only accept 4s and 5s; my pride and motivation were tested. This year I plan on expanding my AP exam study habits. Along with procrastination, the lack of sufficient preparation for the test led to my downfall. While working on an assigned practice AP multiple choice and free-response test during the holidays, I plan on reviewing sample multiple choice and essays from last year in addition to the ones from previous AP tests found on the College Board website. Confident that the world won’t end, I will instead continue devoting my attention towards my objective of receiving a 4 or 5 on the exam. Upon my return from what I believe will be an enjoyable vacation, I will work even harder to maintain my A average while staving off more procrastination. With the spring semester set to be just as challenging, I’ll seek to ease my troubles by attending all four of the Super Saturday AP exam review sessions at the LCB academy while reading passages and analyzing sufficient information from the 5 Steps to a 5 book. In doing so I believe I will earn college credit that meets my expectations and graduate Barbe with the knowledge that I had redeemed myself from last year’s

    Ap World History Review

    This is basically everything we’ve ever learned in APWH, which I’ve compiled all into one study guide for use on the AP Exam. I know it’s a lot, and I apologize: but we’ve learned a lot. I’ve gone through the entire Princeton Review Book: reading, highlighting, and annotating to make sure I’ve covered everything important, along with outlines, handouts, websites, and other books. I really want everyone to do well, and I know you all will anyway—but I think this will help. I’m sorry if I’ve missed anything, but I don’t think there are any errors.…

    Ap Literature In Room Jay Analysis

    During my high school career I have endured many sleepless nights due to my insistence that I read all the books assigned to me. For my freshman and sophomore year this was no big deal. However, after junior year with McGee I have come to realize that trying to read all the texts assigned would be my demise. As much as it pained me, I had to, instead of reading then entire text, read a simple summary. This year I have managed to get by with this same method. Throughout my semester in AP Literature in Room 303 with Timothy McGee, I have enjoyed certain texts more than others, however, the level of importance of these texts is determined not by whether or not I liked the, but rather instead what they taught me and how important they might be on the AP exam. There have been a large number of books and stories that we have covered during our time, but the three that I believe are the most…

    Crazy Comp One

    Throughout this semester many things have been new experiences for the entire class. Some met new interesting people on the other hand some people learned new experiences that will be used throughout the rest of this next semester. Whether it was watching a video on the computer or reading through the Bedford book, many new techniques were learned, as well as new information being learned. Some day’s everything may have not been all together but everything still managed to work out for the entire class, or the one’s that stuck it out through “craziness” of being a new student or having a new teacher. This “craziness was definitely well worth it now that the semester is over and the new semester is approaching.…

    What I Learned from English 102

    When the semester began I thought to my knowledge that my writing was that of good quality. Though I had a good basic understanding of the format of an essay or letter I still had a lot to learn. My writing changed in many ways such as learning to eliminate unnecessary wording in my thesis, the use of synonyms, analyzing quotes and writing abstract to concrete thoughts or ideas. This Class not only helped enhance my writing abilities but to also better evaluate the writings of others and forced me to acknowledge the rigorous work of future courses in college.…

    Statement Of Purpose: Coast Guard Career

    To accomplish this, I enrolled in a multitude of science and mathematics classes. I researched multiple websites searching for answers to strengthen my weaknesses, and sought out tutoring from my instructors to ensure I understood difficult concepts. To complement my academic goals, I set aside time each day this past summer to improve my physical fitness. This included going to the YMCA at 0530 to work on my strength training, competitively swimming for two hours, and running 3-5 miles every day. To compliment my physical fitness routine, I set a goal to increase my SAT scores to be more competitive. I continue to train academically, physically, and mentally to build a strong foundation in which I will be well-prepared for the Academy’s SWAB summer and academically challenging…

    Essay On Ap Classes

    This will be the second time I make one of these essays and as a person who has experienced an AP course I am thrilled to express what I have accomplished and the objectives I want to attain for my future in AP. Before entering my first AP Class there was only a feeling of fright and a part of me was ready to bail so I could run back to the normal classes. However, now that I look back I am glad that I did not run away. Due to the Pre-AP and AP course that is offered by the school I was capable of achieving more than I could have ever imagined. For example, the vocabulary I utilize is way more extensive and my knowledge in English and Spanish grammar has increased for the better. Not only that, but values like responsibility and assertiveness have played an important role in AP course because of the high intellectuality and sophistication in them. My experience in AP this year has aided me to grow intellectually and…

    Medical Field Goals

    Over the next two years, I will be facing some of the biggest obstacles in my life. High school is considered some of the most important years of a student’s life. There, they decide what field they want to pursue and are taught what they need to know to succeed in their field. By the end of 11th grade, I hope to have a 3.8 GPA and have an ACT score between 34 and 36. I hope to have passed Allied health with flying colors, so that in my senior year I am able to find an internship in a great institution. I also hope to be certified in CPR so that I able to move quickly through college and school. By the end of senior year, I have set my goals that I keep a GPA of 3.8 or higher. I will work to achieving being a great President of HOSA and maintaining the other clubs I am a part of. Still, the most important part of senior year is college applications. By the end of first semester, my goal is to be a future student at the University of Michigan.
