A) I learned that from the assessment their are different types of majors that range matching my personality and skills besides accounting. It may effect my decision in what I planned to pursue and my goals when I declare my major. But I’ll still go with accounting.

B) I didn’t know their were other careers that match my criteria and goals. I chose to attend Baruch College for my career in business and attend Zicklin, I know that for sure its in business. But I will look into more careers offered in business.

C)Focus 2 helped me a lot in discovering my horizons that its not strictly broad if I ever dislike the major intend to commit to. There are more majors that match perfectly with me. It made clearly think more about my future and help plan it.

My group selected Syria as the topic for our New York Times project. The topic was chosen because it was a major issue concerning the United States and the world. The Syrian conflict has been in the scope for two years and its a continuing issue. This topic reflects the events happening around us in the world and world issues that play in a role on politics, economy and society. We are connecting to world events to discover our own opinions and ideas on the issues that are similar to the crisis in Syria.

#1.   I know what I want, what I was doing, and what I will do in the future.It may affect some of my thoughts, but it does not affect my goal. For me, my goal is very simple, but difficult to achieve.I want my business to become a chain of business.

#2.   I chose  baruch college, not because business major.I just wanted to give myself a chance to prove I was  fit in college, or not. if it is “yes”, I will consider my major. So far, I can not tell you an accurate answer. But I will continue to try to prove this issue.

#3.    Focus 2 helped me a lot, on account of those, it showed me many majors that I never  heard before. It made me more clearly what I like, what I want, what I need.

My group selection about electronic. Because baruch is a commercial college, then it is bound to have a relationship with the e-commerce.To learn the latest information, we must know how to use electronic products.Then we can always stay up to date information in our knowledge of them.Business, for me, the most important thing is real-time dynamic.

a) I learned that I might be interested in different majors after looking at the results from the self-assessments. This affected my choice of major and career goals a little because I still want to pursue my first major I had in mind.

b) I had no clue that the results would come up with other majors different than Business ones. That was the reason I went to Baruch. I will search up more information on the majors that came up in my results.

c) Focus 2 helped me a lot because it showed me many majors that I never even heard before in my life. It pinned down to a major I would like in the future.

My group selected the theme of sports because we were all familiar with it and Baruch offers a wide variety of sports to participate in like basketball, swimming, and even soccer. I am a huge fan of those sports in Baruch.

Hey guys,

Before next week’s class on Tuesday, October 29, you guys have two blog posts due but don’t worry they shouldn’t be too difficult.  The instructions for both posts are below.

Blog Post #2

For this assignment, you must post a link to your New York Times “Front Page” you’ve developed in your seminar AND explain why the group selected the items that are included reflecting on how/why these selections best express the most salient issues/concerns during their first semester at Baruch.

Blog Post #3

After completing your Focus 2 assessment, post your action plan onto the blog site and answer the following prompts below:
a. “What have you learned about yourself through your self-assessments and how has this affected your choice of major and career goals?”
b. “How do these results reflect a change from what you expected or planned for yourself previously?”
c. “How did participating in FOCUS 2 help you clarify a future direction for yourself?”

Remember to post these into two separate blog posts. I’ll see you guys next Tuesday.

This is Baruch. This is where I go to school. I enjoy going to school here. I plan on going into the business school. I want to major in marketing. Baruch has become a big part of my life

That is a picture of a Jewish star. I am Jewish and that star represents our religion. I am an orthodox Jew.

That is the NY Giants emblem. I love football and I am a very big New York Giants fan. I have season tickets and go to a lot of games.

This is a picture of ocean parkway. That is the area in Brooklyn from which I come from. My whole community lives there and I know pretty much everybody around the area.

My grandparents are from Syria. That is where my family comes from. Jews were being oppressed and therefore they left and came to America.

I work on Broadway in the city. I work in a wholesale company called Freeze. We sell licensed t-shirts. Our office is on broadway between 38th and 39th.

This is Avicii. He is my favorite music artist. I actually went to one of his concerts last week in Roseland Ballroom.

I love xbox. My favorite video game is NHL. I recently bought NHL 14 and love it!

That is an iphone 5. That is the phone I have and I am addicted to it. Whether listening to music, texting, emailing etc. I am always on it.

8 pictures that describe me are : http://www.flickr.com/photos/ssdtanay/

The picture with the village road describes the environment that I used to live in in India and Bangladesh. This is the type of environment that I hope to live in when I move out of the city. The second picture is the picture of the tabla, a musical instrument that I learned to play, and it is the only instrument that I know how to play. Because I have connections from both India and Bangladesh, it would be best appropriate for me to put a map of the two countries. The fourth picture is the Nexus, with which I spend a lot of time, mostly reading the news. My favorite soccer team comes next, which is Germany. Although my most favorite is USA, Germany is the team that stays in the World Cup longer, and therefore I am an avid supporter of Germany. India is my favorite team for my favorite sport, which is cricket. This picture, although is from a game, defines Team India. My computer, which is a really old one comes next in the gallery, and defines how I spend my time. Then comes my brother, who is my guide, and my friend. Without him, I would not be at the stage that I am in right now.
