Why I Deserve The Extra Grade
I am writing to you in confidence about getting ten extra points on my semester grade. I strongly believe that I deserve the extra grade because I have done well this year vs my other years in high school, especially in your class. A few test I have failed, but I have learned from my mistakes.The more I practice and study the more I achieve as a student.

I realize that this class is a challenge to pass. The essays you provide is like every week. Do you want us to fail? Or is it because you want us to succeed in the future? I understand that you want us to go far in life, but would you want all your students to fail your class if you kept giving hard work? I am afraid I will have to retake your class again. It's a fear of mine that I won't

    Character Foils In Charles Dickens A Tale Of Two Cities

    "It was the best of times, it was the worst of times […] we were all going directly to Heaven, we were all going directly the other way" (Dickens 7). Charles Dickens "[influenced] the development of the serial novel" and created many classics (Pool 389). Only Shakespeare used the same writing techniques as Dickens (Engel). The novel "A Tale of Two Cities" is a grand example of character foils and doubling within one of Dickens ' novels. The use of England, France, and the characters makes the novel better because they add to the intensity of the plot "between the two eternally paradoxical poles of life and death" (Charles Dickens 421).…

    Dual Credit English Reflective Essay

    This class has taught me many things about myself along with many necessary skills needed while writing. I know now that, through hard work and determination, I can achieve what I might think to be impossible. While reflecting back on my initial writing abilities, I see the weak, uneducated style of writing. Each essay shows my progression and improvement, and, after a while, the class began to become much easier. Today, after practicing throughout my essays this semester, I believe that I, in fact, have…

    I Thought this class was gonna be easy but now I know that it's not that easy cause i'm not in school. And I also know that this class is gonna prepare us to be better and to get better at computer's and all that stuff. CTE is pretty hard if your not in school doing your work but even tough I'm not there it doesn't mean I'm not capable of doing all your work and having good grades.

    Self Assessment Inventory Analysis

    I think that I challenged myself to receive good grades, and that I have done so this semester. I am eager to find out new or different things that I have some knowledge about, but I was amazed at the things I thought were right with counseling issues that I was completely wrong about. I am sure that I still have a long way to go, and many new things to learn. I feel that I was entirely invested in this class and all the assignments that were given to me. I wasn’t late on any assignments and many times had the assignment finished before it was due. I read each chapter carefully and was interested in each new thing that I found. I always want to do my very best in each class that I take. I returned back to college when I was 40 years old. This was something that I had dreamed of for many years, but was afraid to try it. I thought that I wasn’t smart enough to go back to school. I am glad that I made this decision even if it was many years after I should have done it.…

And looking at its success in Indian markets, no one can ever think that it’s going to leave Indian markets, ever.
