My Bad Experiences in High School Essay

This semester has been a big learning experience. I came into UCF at the beginning of the summer thinking that this semester was going to be a breeze. High school was very easy for me so I assumed college couldn’t be that much harder. Wow, was I wrong. It’s not that this semester was overly difficult it was just not what I was expecting. I really never had homework in high school and almost never had to study. I very quickly learned that college was the exact opposite of that.I have done more…

the course of my high school career, math and science have always been my strong points. Even through middle school I was considered advanced for my grade. I have enjoyed these subjects the most as opposed to reading and writing. Of course, I’m not saying that these subjects don’t have their difficult times, I’m merely pointing out that these courses have always seemed to flow generally smooth with my academic career. My excellent teachers and the way they teach, along with my loving parents…

February 2016 My Educational Journey Throughout my life I have seen myself as having a growth mindset, facing all the good and bad challenges school has had to offer throughout the years. Sometimes as a student, I wondered if school really mattered. How does paper work, working out, and eating have anything to do what we want to be in life were all learning the same thing? Almost every kid in America is going to school. What makes me so different? The questions always appeared in my mind, why am…

I have lived in Teaneck, New Jersey all my life. I’ve been surrounded by many of the same people for the past 18 years. The people who know me well would describe me as kind and creative. The first thing the people who don't know me well would say that I am quiet. That is not who I am or who I want to be remembered as. I think of myself as kind, open minded, and intelligent. I don't think of myself as quite. I want to be heard. I want to have a voice. I want to be remembered for the good acts…

A time in my life that caused me to learn a lesson was when I had a video game addiction at the start of high school, which caused me to experience bad grades, poor health, and little to no friends. My video game addiction had me playing games for so long that I would put off my school assignments leading to me having a .1 GPA for that year. When I started high school I was 4,9 and 180lbs At the end of my freshman year with the help of constant video games and a less then healthy diet I ended up…

entered high school, I was terrified, but a little excited. The idea of being surrounded by a bunch of strangers, and being in a new environment made me tremble. When my first day of high school finally came, I realized that it was a much different experience than I expected. There were no teachers really guiding you around, the only person you could depend on was yourself. I learned that more and more everyday. If it wasn’t for high school, I’d be the same old kid that I was in middle school. I…

When I evaluate my school year, many things come to mind. I think about my friends. The highs and the lows. I also think about how I have grown. My 7th grade year at CMS was full of concepts learned, experiences, and personal growth. I have had many experiences throughout my 7th grade school year.In the school year I learned how to write an argumentative writing. First, it was to back it up with facts to make it better and believable. Second, I have learned what meiosis is where it starts and…

Everyone experiences failure at some point in their life. What comes from that failure is what molds the person. People say that school isn’t for everyone. I thought that I was one of those people. High school came easy to me because I wanted to play baseball. I kept my grades up to make my parents happy to play ball. While in high school, college was just an afterthought. I knew I was going to college. That was the expectation. There was no set plan for me because I was the first person in my…

Throughout my entire academic journey, I have been through an abundance of ups and downs. Most of my academic success and triumphs began in high school. During elementary and middle school, my academic journey was very mediocre. During high school, I achieved many things such as placing first in the districts history fair, graduating with my A.A. degree in sociology, and being captain of my high school soccer team. I also faced some very devastating challenges involving myself and my family. I…

writing is bad and eventually you will believe it. Thanks to the bad critics and the hateful comments one gets disappointed about his “bad writing” thinking it is not sufficient. There is no bad writing if you describe emotions, feelings, experiences and thoughts in a document. If you…
