“You Will Always Go Far With CTR”

“You Will Always Go Far With CTR”
CtR will always help you because your choosing the right and when you choose the right good and rewarding things happen for example if I have a big test the next day, and friends invite me to crazy college party and I refuse to go because I have to study, I will get a good score on the test just by choosing the right. Ctr is hard to do but if you focus on choosing the right you will always get great results. For example I once had a friend that liked to smoke marijuana he always kept offering me marijuana until I no longer spoke to him I knew that was choosing the wrong the next week he got caught smoking I was proud that I choose the right. If you choose the wrong there is going to be consequences for example if I smoke and drink I will eventually have health problems like lung cancer, heart attack, and liver cancer. That could have been avoided by choosing the right you see choosing the wrong is the wrong way to go and you will go completely nowhere if you choose the wrong you will end up in jail. Many people succeed by choosing the right if people didn’t choose the right many things wouldn’t exist the more people succeed the more things they can accomplish. I want to choose the right to be something in life and have a good paying job so that I can afford all the things I want. I do not want to have a job that I would not enjoy or a job that doesn’t pay as much. Choose the Right

ACADEMIC SUCCESS PART 2

Part 2
Laura B.’s Academic Success Story                                                                     
In high school I was one of the good student who didn’t really have to study to be a good student. The  information that I took for notes in class usually sunk in enough for me to be able to get by on the test by simply reviewing the material just before the class began. It wasn’t that I didn’t try, I had a 4.0 all throughout high school, but I never really had to put forth much of an effort to get the results that wanted to see. In college however that changed. Not only did I start studying and reading the book but I began to understand that the little tiny facts were just as important as the general concepts. My overall study method: I do the reading that is required for the classes and try to keep up. If I do fall behind, I usually use the reading that I did not get as an additional study aid. I take good notes in class and actually attend every class that I can. Sometimes, miss class because of volleyball, its tough because of volleyball make sure that I get the notes from another student in the class also, for a subject such as chemistry, I do practice problems to help me understand what the material means .

Academic success Part 1



Academic success
Part 1
My great academic success: in my principles of marketing class, we had to come up with a new product and sell it. My group ended up with a couple supposedly bad students according to our teacher since they were the last ones picked. In the end, they helped out more than needed since I was team leader I assigned them certain pieces of the project that became solely their responsibility. Delegating work always helps since it allows a group member individual work without separating the group.
English, math, foreign language tips: math basically just takes practice. I always tell student to take a bland piece of paper and write everything you know about what you’ve learned or what you’re studying for in the class. If you don’t remember everything start drawing blanks, then you need to study more and review your notes. Note cards work really well for foreign language here are my final words of windows for students who want to get better grade in college: go to class, make friend with people in class just in case you’re absent, and remember that you should what to learn.

Part 2

How I’ve overcome an initial bad grade: When receiving a bad grade, I just try to do better on the second exam and study harder. It’s hard when you first test in a class and have no idea what to expect. The second one is usually easier since you know what to expect from your teachers.

My strategies for written assignments: Start early and make sure that you have it proofread. Also, with written assignments, having a timeline planned out can help like by setting a certain number of pages done by a certain day before the paper is due.

How I succeed in team projects: COMMUNICATION! Despite your group synergy, communication is crucial. I remember I ran out of cell phone minutes constantly when working on a group project for my marketing research class. It’s really important that everyone is on the same page and getting the same emails. The worst is when two people are working on the same portion of the project and don’t even realize it.

Heather A.’s Academy success story
In high school, I didn’t study as much in groups as I do in college. I feel I learn better when I can teach other people information and we can exchange notes take in class because sometimes others student pick up more important information than other.
My overall study method: I prefer to study in small groups in high school and practice problems where I can work out the method verbally with others. My test study method: I have very different techniques. Or financial tests, I try to work on problems giving in class as well as problems from power points and homework. When it comes to mark eating class, review my notes and try to make diagrams to describe different process.
My time management secret: one of my biggest secret is to look over the information that you just learned when class is over. After reviewing the information, it sick a little bit better than waiting until the night before the test.
How I deal with multiple projects/test: I try to work on whatever has the shortest deadline and work from there my overall study method: I tend do massive studying blocks of about an hour or so in order to really learn the material.

As Quansheeba Kennedy reviews her DCCC transcript in preparation to transfer to Salem College, she can hardly believe she has a 3.3 grade point average and that she was accepted into the prestigious private college with a selective admission policy.

I took two false starts before the 20- year-old Thomasville resident found her true calling elementary education, and more importantly, before she found and reaffirmed the value of herself. She thought back to when she was only 18 years old but felt “overwhelmed by life” she had just graduated from high school when she was I a serious car accident.

I almost killed myself, not by drinking and driving not by partying, but because I was living a life that was overwhelming, “she said. One must work hard, but not waste time. Goofing off during school is a killer. It kills your achievement and your chances for outstanding success now and later.

Chris Mishak, who earned a degree in Medical Laboratory Technology from DCCC in 1998, is the second MLT graduate from DCC to be accepted into physician assistant’s school. In August 2011, Mishak will begin studying at Emory University in Atlanta to become a physician’s assistant. He says DCCC prepared him well to transfer to Winston-Salem State University, where he earned his undergraduate degree in clinical laboratory science in 2004 Since then, he has worked in the lab at Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta.

“I learned pretty much everything that I needed to know about laboratory science at DCCC. Many of the clinical applications that I learned there I still use today either in my medical volunteering in phlebotomy or in the duties of my current job, within includes training new technology on cell identification,” said Mishak.

It is pretty easy to be successful in school. If students work hard and honorably, it’s not difficult at all. All students need to do is study, put in the time; it’s as simple as that. If students aren’t willing to study now, it will be very difficult to develop this habit later on. Therefore, I suggest that students work hard in their studies and at being good people, doing nothing to get them in trouble during high school. By doing so, they will enjoy success during high school and throughout their lifetime.

·         MANY PEOPLE AVOID MAKING DECISIONS THEIR WHOLE LIVES, SO THEIR DECISIVE FACULTY OF MIND, THE FACULTY OF DISCRIMINATIONS, BECOMES RUSTY AND DIES.

WHEN WE STUDY THE FOUR FUNCTIONS OF MIND—BUDDHI THE FACULTY OF DECISIVENESS; EGO, THE PRINCIPLE OF IDENTITY; CHITTA, THE STORE HOUSE OF IMPRESSIONS; AND MANAS, THE IMPORTER AND EXPORTER OF SENSATIONS AND EXPERIENCE—THEN WE BECOME AWARE OF THE POWER OF THE WILL.

·       Student know they should learn to decide on time, but they do it. They always say, ‘’well I knew it. I understood the key, but I did not act in time “
·       Though they may think correctly, and accurately understand the situation properly, they suddenly lose confidence. this is a world of competition; someone else is always trying to attain the same thing we are. So if we don’t know decide on time, valuable in the external world. A tender bamboo can easily bend, but if we try to bend a mature bamboo it will break. That which we have to do today we should not postpone for tomorrow, but we should not make decision in haste. We may have a setback if we make a wrong decision but our mistakes will teach us.
·       We must learn from the successes and mistakes of others. When we see another student succeeding greatly and honorably, learn how they do it and pattern your studies after their’s also on the other hand, when you see other student failing miserably, learn how they do it and AVOID doing what they do or else you will  join them in the failure’s club
