Decent Essays

My goals are mostly short term for right now but later on I will have more long term goals. One of the short term goals I have right now is getting a B+ on my next Sociology exam. In the past I’ve haven’t been doing good on the Sociology exams and I want to prove to myself that I can do better. Another short term goal for me right now is having better study habits. Lately I’ve been slacking off and studying at the last minute. I want to study a week before test and also form a study group with my friends. One of my long term goals is not to give up
