Laura B.’s Academic Success Story

In high school I was one of the good students who didn’t really have to study to be a good student. The information that I took for notes in class usually sunk in enough for me to be able to get by on the tests by simply reviewing the material just before the class began. It wasn’t that I didn’t try, I had a 4.0 all throughout high school, but I never really had to put forth much of an effort to get the results that I wanted to see. In college however, that changed. Not only did I start studying and reading the book, but I began to understand that the little tiny facts is just as important as the general concepts. My overall study method: I do the reading that is required for the classes, and I try to keep up. If I do fall behind, I usually use the reading that I did not get to as an additional study aid. I take good notes in class and actually attend every class that I can. Sometimes, with volleyball, it’s though because we are on the road a lot, but if I do miss class because of volleyball I make sure that I get the notes from another student in the class. Also, for a subject such as chemistry, I do practice problems to help me understand what the material means.
  Choose the right!!!!!!!!!!!!

Student Success Statement

"Light and Darkness can't occupy the same space at the same time" 
It means that if you're fat you take up space Na just kidding. Hmm I think it means that good must over conqueror evil.

My great academic success: In my principles of marketing class, we had to come up with a new product and sell it. My group ended up with a couple supposedly bad students according to our teacher since they were the last ones picked. In the end, they helped out more than needed since I was team leader I assigned hem certain pieces of the project that became solely their responsibility. Delegating work always helps since it allows a group member indivisual work without separating the group. English, math, foreign, language tips.

I will Persist Until I Succeed
How I’ve overcome an minimal bad grade: When receiving a bad grade, I just try to do better on the second exam and study harder. It’s hard when you have your first test in a class and have no idea what to expect. The second one is usually easier since you know what to expect from your teachers.  
My strategies for written assignments: Start early and make sure that you have it proofread. Also, with assignments, having a timeline planned out can help like by setting a certain number of pages done by a certain day before the paper is due.
How I succeed in team projects: COMMUNICATION! Despite your group synergy.

Heather A.’s Academic Success Story
In high school, I didn’t study as much in groups as I do in college. I feel I learn better when I can teach other people information and we can exchange notes taken in class because sometimes other students pick up on more information than others.
My overall study methods: I prefer to study in small groups and practice problems where I can work out the methods verbally with others. My test study method: I have a very different technique. For financial tests, I try to work on problems from power points and homework. Many students should try their hardest in everything.

After some serious soul-searching, Kennedy decided she was made for a purpose: to be successful and to fulfill ho she was destined to be. She returned to DCCC “with determination and a mindset that I would not fail with God leading me.”
She says her first semester back was difficult. “I knew I could find refuge in the Student Success Program,” Kennedy said. “To my benefit, MS. Gravely accepted me back. Because of my struggles and hard times, I seek a new beginning every day and don’t allow the past to cripple my future. I have learned to have self-valued.”

As Kennedy lay crumpled in her hospital bed following the accident, she realized that many of her wounds were invisible. “After the car accident I suffered from low self-esteem and depression,” she said. “For years I allowed someone I loved to physically, mentally and emotionally abuse me.”
