Personal Narrative: My GPA As My Midterm Degree

Having a 3.2 cumulative GPA as my midterm grade is a good start to college, I believe. For the fall semester I am enrolled in Biology 160, Biology 132, Philosophy 112, General Chemistry 101, and University 100 totaling up to fourteen credit hours.

At this seminar I will be asking a tutor how to properly study, since I never studied in high school. I would like to be in a study group for General Chemistry but I do not know how to address my classmates to form one, since I do not know anybody in my
