1. For mid-terms I plan to study hard and effectively.
ReplyDelete2.My AWS mid-term is going to be the hardest exam and I do not believe that I am well prepared for it. I think that I am going to ace my biology mid-term
1.Midterms was the most stressful week to date. It calls for one's undivided attention. I studied quite a bit. Overall a great week.
ReplyDelete2.The two midterms that seemed to be most difficult would be my college algebra and Aws midterm. But I know I passed them all. The advice I would give any freshman is to not only understand the curiiculm, but your teacher as well.I heard alot of stories of how the teacher did not cover anything that was on the test. Always study ahead, and be on time for testing.

Well me personally i was pretty prepared its just my grades didnt reflect the exact grade i had in my heada
ReplyDeleteI would tell freshman to study diligently nad to always consult with thier teachers
Mid term Exams was an amazing expierience for me. Not only did I do exeptionally well in some of my exams but I also learned alot about myself, preparing and studying. All through high school I had it easy. High School was not a challenge for me at all but now preparing for these midterms taught me alot about college and what you need to do in college to be successful. I passed AWS with an A and English with a B. Thease two exams challenged me tremendously but passing them with high grades meant alot to me.
ReplyDeleteI would tell a freshman to keep up the entire year so they wont have to cram right before the test.

ReplyDelete1)I believe that my mid terms will be fairly easy. The only test that i might have trouble with is my Biology class. Just because their is alot of information to gather and take in because it will all be on the test.
2) The 2 test that i will prepare people for is the Biology 111 test and Comp. Writing test. For the biology test i would say that you will need to study and retain all of the information given as soon as you get it, that way you wont have to try to study everything at one time. My second piece of advice would be for the Comp. final which will an essay. In high school you are taught to write a certain way, and when you get in College you have to start expounding on each point. So my advice to becoming successful i this are is to utilize a thesaurus, and proof read the essay many times.
