Freshman Seminar Fall 17 DWA

Rude Awakening: SACC

So one of the many things we were told in our Orientation is that our math classes will probably make us cry. They blatantly tell us the struggles basically 60% of the whole school has gone through.  I was one of those that swore that I would be ready, I had gone to the Summer Prep course so I should have an advantage.  Oh was I so rudely awakened.  The thing about math is that practice makes perfect and if you’re not putting in the hours, you most likely won’t get it.  Being that I am also working while going to school, garnering enough energy to sit down and actually do math problems becomes an issue. So this is where it has lea me: SACC. Luckily the same teacher I had for my summer prep class was available and once again showed me the stupid mistakes I made and that I was really just over thinking.  I had my second test of the semester and I just knew that I needed the extra step, if I had any chance of passing.  Going to SACC allowed me to realize that its ok not to have everything together and sometimes you just need some extra help. I will definitely be making a few more stops here throughout my college career.
