I want to be a Choir director and teach drama at a high school.
The first goal that I want to achieve is to have a good study system. In my system I would put aside a few hours a day to study for my courses. In class I would write notes on things that are important and on things that I might forget. Then during my study time I would get my notes and type them into the computer to help me remember them and to make them look clean. I would pick a couple places at the college to be my study spots. I would have one outside one and one inside one just in case there is some weather conditions. Another things that I am going to to is join a study group with people that are in my classes so we can help each other on the work.

    My goals right now as a High School student is getting me exposed to college classes and to preparing myself for College. Since the beginning of my freshman year of High School my mindset consisted of being in the top 10 percent and taking Pre-AP classes because I knew I wanted to go to college in the future. I knew taking Pre-AP classes would be a challenge for me, but it gave me the resources to become a better student in my academics. For example the teachers in Pre-AP expect more from their students and give out Home-work and projects and set deadlines when the assignments are due.…

    College has been a goal of mine ever since I was in elementary school. I have been interested in the medical field for as long as I can remember since my dad is employed at the hospital. I took my state test for becoming a licensed nursing assistant in December of 2016 and passed. This year I have been really focused on job shadowing different possible occupations ranging from a nurse in OB to a nurse in the ICU. Although I really enjoyed nursing, especially in the OB department I am really interested in the field of a Physician's Assistant.…

    Keeping my three personal and professional goals realistic, I would have to say a personal goal is to finish school at SNHU with a 3.0 GPA or above. I think a way for me to accomplish this goal is to stay focused on the tasks at hand, maintain a good relationship with my advisors and to utilize some of the tutoring options that are available to me as a student. Another personal goal is to work on myself, mentally. I cannot be a good mom or wife when I have the stress, anxiety and depression that I do. A way to help accomplish this goal is to not only start speaking with a psychiatrist (first appointment is August 4th) but to also have my thyroid checked.…

    Everyone’s motive to finish school and get a decent job, whether they know it or not, is to be “successful” and financially stable, but after being told that so many times I notice some of us lose sight of our real dreams. Getting an education becomes the task that blurs the fine lines of what you really want, and so some of us end up in jobs we hate because we only looked at the amount of money that job pulled in. Rather than doing what we love and loving what we do, we sacrifice our time, ironically our money, and happiness in order to make more money to achieve what’s left of our goals for those who still hold them high. Aside from the repetitive, monotonous, and progressive difficulty of the curriculum of reading, writing, and arithmetic, school has taught me more than what was intended.…

    Over the years I’ve discovered that the fewer goals you have the more dedication and success you have with them. Because of this I’ve thought tirelessly about my goals. For instance I knew that one of my short term goals is to get into a good college, that is a need for myself. Thankfully, I was able to complete that goal by being excepted into the University of Minnesota - Twin Cities. Which I have replaced with another short term goal of saving a couple of thousand of dollars either through work and scholarships for college.…
