Superior Essays
Time management, specifically related to beginning work assignments earlier. Often times with assignments, I procrastinate. This is not always done purposely but I am responsible and acknowledge I could’ve better spent my time on work assignments if I managed time properly.

The class materials I reference help to improve my problem solving skills and often make my spent researching an assignment more worthwhile.

Moreover, working in a hospital was beneficial because I saw how medical professionals interacted with each other and their clients.…

    Beginning this class, I was not sure what to expect because I did not really know what community health was. I signed up for the class to fulfill the requirement for my minor. Throughout this class, I have learned so much about the aspects of the community health, agencies, drug abuse, health rates, and disease types and control.

It also taught me the correct meaning of many terms that I thought I knew what they meant, but I had heard them used incorrectly so often that I associated the wrong meaning with the word.…

    There are many viable solutions for this annoying problem that we all face. First thing we can do is make a schedule. Knowing when your assignments are due, really lets you see how much time it will take to complete it and if you can do it in one sitting. And if it 's not possible to complete in one day, then break it up into individual sessions. If you have a really long paper that is due next week, due a little bit each day and that way it won 't seem as long or stressful.…
