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 them certain pieces of the project that became solely their responsibility. Delegating work always helps since it allows a group member individual work without separating the group.

English, math, foreign language tips: Math basically just takes practice. I always tell students to take a blank piece of paper and write everything you know about what you’ve learned or what you’re studying for in class. If you don’t remember everything or start drawing blanks, then you need to study more and review your notes. Note cards work really well for foreign language.

Here are my final words of wisdom for students who want to get better grades in college: Go to class, make friends with people in class just in case you’re absent, and remember that you should want to learn.

 CHOOSE THE RIGHT!!!

How I’ve overcome an initial 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 written 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, communication is crucial. I remember I ran out of cell phone minutes constantly when working on a group project for my marketing research class. It’s really important that everyone is on the same page and getting the same emails. The worst is when two people are working on the same portion of the project and don’t even realize it.

CHOOSE THE RIGHT!!!

Summary/Reflection

Summary/Reflection:

 The article talks about how most teenagers have used alcohol and drugs by the time they reach adulthood. And researchers say that that could be setting up many of them for a lifetime of substance abuse. Since they started using alcohol and drugs at an early it will cause them later on in the future to become addicted to it since they tasted it when they were young. I believe that it’s wrong that teens start to use alcohol and drugs at an early age because it just ruins them as a person they don’t get to live life right and become more successful since they start choosing the wrong. You are responsible for your own actions don’t let other people influence you to do things you don’t want to do. Perhaps they might say it’s cool or it makes you forget about things but just remember that it can become addicted. Remember to always choose the right!!
