This memo describes the reasons why I believe I have showed 'A' caliber professional ethos in this course thus far. It also discusses my current improvements and what I hope to continue learning as course progresses.

I have displayed many of the 'A' level characteristics listed on the Professional Ethos Guidelines. I have turned every assignment in on time and feel I have put forth excellent effort towards those assignments. This course can really benefit my future and help me reach my career aspirations, and I feel as if I have put in the work for this class with that at mind. I have been respectful to my peers and done my best to give them useful advice in improving their assignments. I have been active in group discussions over the readings and have offered discussion questions that I believe would promote thinking in the classroom. Lastly, I have asked for personal help from the instructor to improve my own assignment.

One thing I could improve on is being more vocal during class. I have volunteered to read on occasion and have answered multiple questions, but I haven't always been the first to speak up even when I know the answer to the question asked.

As a sophomore, I have not been very proactive or even really thought about the application process for medical school. This course has gotten me a head start in updating my application and writing my personal statement. I never knew what a personal statement was or that I even needed one, so I am thankful that it was brought up in this course. I also am glad that we are reading The Butchering Art in class, since reading was kind of lost hobby of mine that I have been wanting to get back to, and it has been a really interesting

    There Will Come Soft Rains Reflection Essay

    The first day of English 101 I was unsure what to expect. As a running start student, college was foreign and daunting. Over the quarter, this definitely changed as I became more comfortable with the college environment and assignments. My worries for this class quickly dissipated over the first week or so once I knew it wasn’t that drastic a change. After receiving the assignment calendar, I felt ready for the classwork.…

    Why Is It Important To Break The Laws And Codes Of Practice

    This part of the course made me realise just how much information has to be taken into account and the vast amount of knowledge and legal logistics that have to be involved in any and every decision made in setting environment. Also how careful I need to be to ensure that I am up to date and following all and every policy and procedure set in place to ensure I am doing my part to comply with all the necessary laws and codes of practice.

    English Language: Course Analysis

    Every time a due date would come up for a major assignment, we took time to review each other’s work. I do not remember much from these various encounters, but I do remember receiving helpful comments. Granted, I may have felt upset by some of the things said, but I knew that the criticism I had received was right, and I wanted to do better because of the evaluations. This was unusually for me because before this course, I would hardly listen to others since I thought I was always right. Yet, that changed because I wanted to improve my writing, and to do that I had to listen to other people’s ideas.…
