I think I am a student who wants to get a great GPA in college. And I am a freshman. I think every freshman wants to get high GPA in college. The GPA is not the most important things for people, but it is the most important things for students.

The top 3 concerns about my freshman year at Baruch College are GPA, club, and job. First, to me, the GPA is really important. I am interesting at being a business person. If I cannot get at least 2.5 GPA, I cannot choose business as my major. Second, I want to be personality in college. My character is shy and do not like to talk with other people. In high school, if teachers let me answer questions in class, I will be blush and afraid of speaking loudly. Moreover, I went to tutoring center for preparing my SAT before. I never ask teachers any questions and never answer any questions. So one of my teachers gave me a nickname, which is “3R”. I forgot what exactly the three words are, but this nickname means I am really quiet and shy. I want to change myself. It is better that talk more in American. Nobody will like someone never say their own opinion and never talk. And I think I can be more activity as someone else. So I decide to join a club. I want to be member of a club which can let me be “outside”. Third, one of the top 3 concerns is a job. My family income is not so high. Even though I can get some money from FAFSA, I still need to work. I need some pocket money, and I want to reduce my parents’ burden. They work hard, and they are tired. So I am looking for some part time jobs now. I hope I can get a nice job. In conclusion, I want to get high GPA for my BBA at Baruch College. I decide to join a club for being more activity. And I need a job for reducing my parents’ burden.

I think joining a club and beginning working will make my experience different from high school. Club can let me be more activity. Job can let me have some social experience. I never join a club and have a job in high school, because I think I have to improve my score in high school first. Right now, I think a high GPA does not mean you are successful. That just means you have a good grade. I will learn a lot in college. Not only get some knowledge about subject, but also social experience.

I will be changed a lot in my first year at Baruch College. I will be personality and be more activity. I don’t want someone else call me “3R” again. It’s not me anymore. I can talk and I can express my opinion by myself. I won’t be a person who just nods her head, when another person is talking. As Lawana Blackwell said, “patterning your life around other’s opinions is nothing more than slavery.” I will be someone who is totally different from me before. I hope I can be brave to speak loudly.
