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. SUCH PEOPLE CAN BECOME TOTALLY DEPENDENT ON OTHERS. 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. WILL POWER IS THAT SOMETHING WITHIN US THAT COMES FORWARD AND SAYS, “DO THIS, IT WILL BE HELPFUL FOR YOU.” TRAINING THE INTERNAL FUNCTIONS HELP US TO UNDERSTAND THE DECISIVE FACULTY OF THE MIN, WITHOUT WHICH WE CANNOT BE SUCCESSFUL.

·       WATCH WHAT YOU DO ON A DAILY BASIS. WE BECOME WHAT WE DO AND THINK ABOUT. IF YOU THINK ABOUT NOTHING- YOU WILL BECOME NOTHING. IF YOU THINK ABOUT BEING A GREAT STUDENT- YOU WILL BECOME A GREAT STUDENT. IF YOU THINK ABOUT BEING HONEST-YOU WILL BE HONEST.THE ACTIVITIES AND THOUGHT THAT FILL YOUR DAY ARE KEYS TO LIVING SUCCESSFULLY IN SCHOOL AND THROUOUT YOUR ADULT LIFE.

·       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

·       Make the most of your time and opportunities while at school. Don’t  walst valuable time

Do the math. Even if you’re struggling in math, stay with it. Knowing math gives you options. It opens doors to good jobs in computers, engineering and business. And it helps your mind get organized.

·       Take math problems on step at a time

·       Do your math homework every day. Falling behind will make it that much harder.

·       The first point to understand is the philosophy and science of decision-how to make decisions on time. The most successful person is that person who knows how to decide on time. There are many extraordinarily brilliant people who understand.

Things very quickly, but when the times comes to make a decision, when opportunity comes they withdraw and are not able to act. They do not know how to decide

Part 1

Some experts say the difference between good students and poor students isn’t mainly ability. Instead, it’s how students organize themselves to use their abilities. A little organization can produce amazing results!

Get Organized:

       Have a homework agenda or scribbler to keep track of your assignments, and always carry it.

       Ask the teacher for some outside help when the class room explanation is not adequate for you.

       Use scribblers to put your notes in, and keep them organized

       Have phone numbers for classmates, especially of one who will be your “homework buddy”. This is someone in your class who collects hand-outs and assignments for you when you are absent from school. You can borrow your homework buddy’s notes when you return to school, and you can do the same for this friend.

       Ask questions when you are unsure of something.

       Pay attention in class as it’s very easy to let your mind wander. Take notes, concentrate on what is being said; it will be easier to absorb the information being presented.

       Keep your bookshelf, desk, and kitbag neat.

       Be prepared for each class, bringing materials you need to class (including pencil and paper).
