Student success statement

“Nothing in the world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; the world is filled with educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent. The slogan “press on” has solved and always will solve the problems of the human race.”

-Calvin Coolidge, 30^th president of the united states

Reflection: this post is saying that nothing in this world can replace persistence because if you want to accomplish anything you need persistence, and if you don’t have it, then you won’t be able to accomplish anything.

Communication is at the top of the list of skills that employers look for. And communication in the work place often means writing. Health professionals keep patient charts, researchers depend on the money they collect by writing grant applications, software engineer’s write technical specifications, and nearly everyone writes and e-mail to someone inside or outside of their organization. And before you even get the chance for a job interview, you must present yourself in cover letters and resumes. so by taking papers seriously and doing your best on every research paper, every lab report that you rite, every new post that you write on your blog, and every writing activity you take participation in, your preparing yourself for a good career.

During the test read the directions

It’s important that you follow the instructions exactly. For example, some questions may have more than one correct answer.

Answer easy questions first.

Doing this can jog your memory about useful facts. You may also come across some information that can help you with other questions.

Answer every question.

Unless there is a penalty for wrong answers, answer every other questions; you may be able to get partial credit for those you begin but don’t complete correctly.

Ask question.

If a question isn’t clear, talk to your teacher. If that’s not possible, explain your answer in the margin

Choose the right.

“Improve your performance by improving your attitude”

Anon

Reflection: this post is saying that if you want to improve one of your performance skills then you must first improve your attitude on that skill, because if a person wants to do good in school but hates doing work, their grades will not improve.
