Now that my first semester is almost over it's been a learning experience for me. I had to adjust to moving away from home, attending a different school, studying college level work, and living on my own. Some of the problems that I faced this semester were academics, finances, and personal problems. I had many academic problems in my first semester
I had many personal commitments to deal with on a regular basis that did not allow me to sit in a classroom for several hours. Being a full-time mother, a student, and an employee with goals, online classes became the best way for me to get the education needed. It has been easier to study and get my coursework done in my own free time, and I was able to get a better understanding of the material at my own pace.

Everybody was laughing and having fun and I felt like I wanted to be there with my classmates and not in the cold, obscure room with the math teacher. I wanted to be like everybody else I did not want to go to school and be in the classroom alone while my classmates were having so much fun! Of course, my parents had to go to school the next day and my grades were affected as well. That was an unpleasant day for many of us but we learned a lesson: sometimes it’s very easy to be like everybody else around you but it’s harder to make your own decision that can help you to reach higher goals in life without falling victim to bandwagon

In this essay I am going to explain key influences on the learning process of individuals. I am doing a BTEC extended diploma in health and social care right now at college and I am enjoying it so far. I did As levels last year in applied science, media studies and communication and culture and did like the subjects which made me go off track I didn’t attend lessons and my attendance dropped poorly. However when I came to pick up my results and I didn’t get the grades that I needed I realized that I need to put my head down because I don’t want to end up doing a boring/retail job all my life. My career goal is to become a radiographer which my dad first introduced to me and I found rather interesting, but my plan B is social work.
Allison Perrymond Archer ASC 101 29 November 2011 I made it through my first semester The first year of college can be a new and exciting journey for many students. Students can also take on new experiences in their first year of college; it can also come with bumps along the way. As a student he or she must find a way to balance their new life as a college student and their transitions. There will be difficulty transitioning such as adapting to new the new environment, trying to make new friends and difficulty with class work. Adjusting to an environment that you’re not used to can be too much for some students.
I have bills that I need to pay or else I wouldn’t have a job. School is so important to me and that’s why this semester I am going to be trying my best to prove that! Not being able to attend classes affected my grades tremendously and that’s not going to happen! I have one amazing boss right now and all she wants is for me to go to school and get that out of the way, I’m happy that she is actually going around my work schedule it helps me out a
Without grades, how else would we assess and measure a student’s abilities in a practical way that can be used for this? Without grades every applicant would have to get brought in to an interview or something similar. This would take a lot of time and become extremely tedious. Grades are not only beneficial to students after graduation, but they benefit students and teachers during school as well. Grades are clear and distinct indications of how a student is performing in school.
The first year of college forms students into well-rounded individuals. A lot of people don’t come to realize how accustomed they are to their social groups until they are forcedly pushed out of their comfort zones. Starting college is essentially hitting the restart button; it’s a fresh start, a chance to create a new reputation. In my first few weeks of college I met many new people during welcome week, so many that it was hard to recall some of their names. Though it was overwhelming, when classes started I had a chance to make actual connections with people and make new friends.
