Recommended: Letter grading system

Transcripts I am immensely satisfied with the grades that I earned during my high school career. Getting good grades has never been too much of a struggle for me as I am raised by parents who are both teachers and encourage me to excel in the classroom everyday. I comprehend quickly and enjoy learning as it will make my future brighter. There have been times when I spent countless weekends doing all of my homework instead of enjoying it with friends, but those times have been worth it because my grade point average is a 4.22. I have learned something from every class that I have taken, whether is was a mathematical formula in calculus or how to take care of residents in nursing homes for my SNA class. All of this knowledge will help grow

I take the things I have learned from my past experiences and use them as a guide to help me in the future.

    I have learned so much material and more. I learned soon into the year that I couldn’t just study a little bit the night before a test, so now I study for a little while every day starting some days before the test so I feel prepared when it comes. I have also learned that for my academic benefit that I can’t procrastinate each night. Now, whenever I am doing homework or studying, I leave my phone somewhere where it can’t distract me and grab a snack before I start so I don’t have to get up at all. During 7th I grade I have also figured out how to use my class time more efficiently. This allows me to have less homework and ask teachers questions if I need to at school. I have also become better at being proactive, and because of this I get less missing assignments and my work doesn’t pile up. Finally, I have learned over the course of this year that school is all about the growth and improving yourself, and personally I have noticed that good, progressive growth often comes along with good grades. As a 7th grader this year I have been pushed and compelled to expand my academic abilities with the various assignments, projects, and tests in all of my subjects, and though at times it may have seemed like a challenge I have had growth therefore allowing me to push through these

In retrospect, I believe that it was my inability to choose the classes I took which resulted in my lack of enthusiasm on the ride to school each morning.

  • Essay About College Experience

    734 Words  | 2 Pages

    There are some people who did not do very well in grade school. Some may have even dropped out. But do not fear, because college can be like a second chance. There are many things that college can offer. It can give someone a degree or help them get back on their feet. College can open doors to places that high school never did, such as a new job, how to keep a job, and how to make more money. It can also help an individual look into subjects at larger depth. Personally, I hope that this happens to me. I am not doing too well in high school, but I am not doing horribly either. My parents are not proud of it. They expect me to be a straight A student, but I’m struggling to complete their expectations. It causes my parents to be stricter towards me. However, I hope that once I start doing full time at a college that I can do better than I did in high school for a few reasons. For the first reason, I want to have a better relationship with my parents. I want my mother and father to see that I am successful. Secondly, I want to get a degree for my own good. Lastly, I want to have a good future for myself. I do not want to be working at a job that is difficult and stressful physically and mentally. My parents always tell me to do well in college so I don’t have to work at difficult job like they do, which is brick laying and welding. Whether someone is a high school dropout or someone who did well

  • My Senior Year

    511 Words  | 2 Pages

    Grades are one of the most important factors of my high school career. My grade point average and my SAT's determine what college I go to. They determine my effort at high school. I must do whatever possible to keep my grade point average above 3.0. My GPA currently is ok, but if I could increase it by just .2 I would be much better off. Grades are very crucial for getting acceptance to college. They are one of the major things that colleges look at to accept you (or so I have been told). So I will keep pushing myself so that my grades will increase this year, making it possible for me to hopefully enter a better school then I can right now.

  • Children Should Not Be Given Grades

    637 Words  | 2 Pages

    Grades were intended to be beneficial to students and let them know where they stand in their learning, but they are doing more than that, not in a good way though. A lot of kids are teased about their grades in elementary and middle school. If you didn’t receive the best grades and others found this out you might have found yourself in a rather frustrating situation. I remember one of my siblings in middle school didn’t get very good grades and kids teased her about it, she stopped trying to pass her classes and her grades fell from C/D’s to F’s. If a teacher sees your grades are bad a lot of the time they automatically assume you’re a bad kid. The same goes for getting a job. It would be very hard for you to be hired if you have bad grades, because they automatically assume you are not ready for the responsibility of a job.
