Some things at Baruch this semester were like I expected, while other things greatly exceeded my expectations. One thing that surprised me was all of the work I had this semester. I knew that when college started that it was going to be a lot of work, but the last couple of weeks it seems like my professors have been piling it on. Another things that exceeded my expectations was how easily I got used to being in college. In the first week or so I was having some trouble just getting to my classes on time, I thought I was going to have some trouble getting used to a new schedule. However after a few days I got used to it real quickly and I haven’t had any trouble since.
I think that my first semester at Baruch has gone pretty well. I have gotten used to most of my professors and their teaching styles. That is not to say that I liked all of my professors, I’ve just learned how to learn in their classes. My grades this semester have also been pretty good. I have mainly been getting between an eighty and a ninety. I am sure that by the end of this semester I’m going to have a pretty good GPA.
If I could do this whole first semester over again I think that I would probably try and study more. I have always had a little bit of trouble studying. This semester, while I did study, I might not have studied as much as I could have. I think that if I had maybe spent a little more time studying I probably would have done better on some of my tests.
I don’t really think that I’ve changed all that much since this semester began. I have gotten better at doing work and not waiting until the last second to do it, but I think that I’m pretty much the same person I was three or four months ago.
