In the article “Helping First-Year Students Help Themselves”, Whelan uses many strategies to accurately incorporate ways to establish one’s…

students see this as a free passing grade for a university level course because they are enlisted in the dual credit programs. Even though they are privileged to take this program, they still have to do the same amount of work and effort as much as a full-time college student. College has its differences compared to high school and vice versa. College is considered to be a life path choice after the adolescence years of a human.

Through those good experiences, there were bad experiences that caused me to have a setback and doubt my ability. While others strived in reading and writing, it was very challenging to feel confident in subjects I did not understand.
