Third advisory always proves challenging for me. This year, however, I remained on task throughout each quarter, so I saw third as a chance to keep that streak up. Sadly, I did not fully apply myself and excel to my best ability, specifically in AP Language. Usually around the end of the quarter, I have a strong B.

Next quarter, I want to build off skills acquired in this advisory to be successful in the AP Exam. Third quarter proved challenging but overall, I did okay. Although I am disappointed in myself for not completing work to my best ability, I am proud that I continue to effectively apply skills and contribute in class. This quarter taught me to not get cocky and assume that good grades will just come to me; I need to continue to work hard towards the grades I desire. With a week left in the quarter, I hope my last few grades are my best. Also, I want to learn from my mistakes and do better in the upcoming and final quarter of my junior
