Eventually I figured out everything that I needed to do and go to work. It wasn’t a difficult paper but it needed time and no room for procrastination. A huge portion of the paper revolved around research and the grade was going to depend on how you used your time.

    When I first came into this classroom, I felt it was going to be useless because I already took English 110 and English 111 in high school. The reason was because I got the opportunity to study English 110 and 111 due to my grades. What made me have to take this class again in college is because I wasn’t planning to go to ICC, so I didn’t pay for it as a credit. What took me by surprise is that this semester of English was quite challenging but also fun at the same time.…

    High school is designed to prepare mature, young adults for college. Senior year, especially, may be the most difficult for students since their college years are approaching quickly. However, for most seniors, dual-enrollment is available during their high school years. Unfortunately, taking certain college classes while in high school could be very challenging. Since students are taking collegiate classes for the very first time, some may say that the students should receive a pass because they are dual-enrolled. However, there is no difference between taking college classes your senior year and taking them your freshman year at an institution. Receiving a “pass” only because students are dual-enrolled is highly unfortunate.…

    “Procrastination is key” said no one, ever. That is why I had a bout of anxiety when I waited to write this essay, especially when I had one eye on my college applications, and the other on approaching deadlines. Scary, I know. However, I had a reason for waiting, and it was a good one.…

    I took Dual Enrollment to experience how future college coursework would be like. I hope to learn how to write more organized writing assignments. In addition, I hope to build up my vocabulary. When writing, I enjoy how I can be open-minded. I can write how I feel and what I learned because not all of us have the same perspective when it comes to certain works of literature. However, I do not like when I start writing an essay and develop writers block. There is nothing that I am particularly worried about when it comes to Dual Enrollment. All in all, I hope this class will run…

    The inconsistency plagues a significant role in my tendencies to cognitively assess what’s important and what is not. Sadly, my cognition processes depict the tranquilities of completing an assignment at the last minute, instead of the long term effects of waiting to do an assignment. I cognitively feel like I do my best work at the last minute. I have had a problem with procrastination since middle school. I always wait until the last minute to do my homework. I realized that my procrastination was getting out of control during my sophomore year in college. I worked 40 hours a week, and I was also a full time student. My grades suffered due to my procrastination, and my job was my top priority instead of my education. During my sophomore year, I would stay up all night writing papers the day before the paper was due, and I would also pull all-nighters the day before an exam. I ended the first semester of my sophomore year with a 2.6 GPA and I was…

    When I began studying at the University of Montevallo, I had a background of high school creative writing and English classes, and one summer of a college English class. To be honest, I was terrified of jumping into my fall English 102 class. I felt I was unprepared for a serious college level composition class, and that I would have a strenuous time adjusting to a four-year university. However, as I walk away from my English 102 class I carry the understanding of writing a college level essay, undertaking research and completing a research and argument paper properly, and knowledge to prepare me for my other classes and profession.…

    “Success is not final, failure is not fatal; it is the courage to continue that counts”(Winston Churchill). College has been the learning experience of a lifetime. Each class contains something special for each student. Sometimes a course may stand out to others than most. College can be overwhelming at first because you are adjusting to different expectations and rules. Once a person figures out a balance to their studies, anything seems possible. This college preparedness course has changed my perspective and attitude on college. I was not confident in beginning a new school year, especially because of all the stories told in high school to scare students. Now, I have embraced new strategies for success because of what I have learned so far in this course.…

    This English class has been very helpful in my efforts to improve my writing abilities, but has also been very challenging due to there being a different median for every essay. It’s been a heavy work load especially this semester since I decided to enroll in five classes, but in the end it has been very beneficial indeed. I can’t say that writing essays has been one of my strong points but I believe that this course has helped me improve tremendously and it has also made me feel a lot more comfortable with my writing. While in high school I would usually write all of my essays a day before the due date a habit of mine that was very difficult to overcome, but now I have learned from my mistakes. I learned that you have to take your time and start he project early this way you can make multiple drafts and with each draft your essay continues to get better and better. This…

    A main problem that many freshmen face is, procrastinating a lot. Procrastination is postponing a task or job for later. As a student, I have experienced this many times, when i 'm working on an assignment, I get distracted by my phone, television, or anything. And, I’m always doing my homework at the last-minute. As a result of procrastinating, the work is not done properly or is as good, if I had worked on it earlier. And I usually end up rushing my work and doing it last minute. But, this is not a rare problem with students, as in a study done by the American Psychological Association shows that around 80 to 90 percent of college students procrastinate.…
