I can personally say the you should at least do every single assignment. If you do not then things will not look too good come the end of the year. Even if you know you will not give your best on some assignments, at least do them. Anything is better than a zero in the gradebook. My second bit of advice for first semester is to work on your grammar. Grammar comes into play too much later in the year, and if you neglect it thinking you can just correct your mistakes you are going to have a bad time. Second semester is a little lighter on the advice. All you need to worry about is the critical analysis and the occupational study. As you are reading your book for the critical analysis, you should be thinking about what event or part of that book you could base and entire paper on. You should read your book to completion early and start mapping out what part of the book that had the most going on. That way you have a lot of time to spend of getting it done. Getting done with your job shadow early and getting a headstart on the occupational study is the best thing you could possibly do for yourself at the end of the year. If you get done with your job shadow early, you can finish a couple parts of the occupational study before the project really
