"you will never regret doing what's right."
Anon
my reflection: you should choose the right because only good things will come out of it and you you will never regret it.

I will persists until I succeed
I will persists until I succeed
Heather A.’s academic success
story
In high school, I didn’t study as much in
groups as I do in college. I feel I learn better when I can teach other people
information and we can exchange notes taken in class because sometimes other
students pick up on more important information than others.
My overall study method: I prefer to study
in small groups and practice problems where I can work out the methods verbally
with others. My test study method: I have different techniques. For financial
test, I try to work on problems given in class as well as problems from power
points and homework. When it comes to marketing classes, I review my notes and
try to make diagrams to describe different processes.
My time management secret: one of my
biggest secrets is to look over the information that you just leaned when class
is over. After reviewing the information, it sticks a little bit better than
waiting until the night before the test.
How I deal with multiple projects/test: I try
to work on whatever has the shortest deadline and work from there. My overall
study method: I tend to do massive studying blocks of about an hour or so in
order to really learn the material.

student success statement
"you have only always to do what is right. it will become easier by practice, and you enjoy in the midst of your trials the pleasure of an approving conscience."
Robert E. lee
MY REFLECTION: This quote is saying, well, i think its saying that you choose the right because its the right thing to do. i know it sounds confusing but why would you choose the wrong,? your going to hurt you and maybe other people around you. if you keep choosing the right more and better things will come your way and you will just get use to doing the right instead of doing the wrong.

After some serious soul-searching, Kennedy
decided she was made for a purpose: to be successful and to fulfill who she was
destined to be. She returned to DCCC “with determination and a mindset that I would
not fail with god leading me.”
She says her first semester back was
difficult. “I knew I could find refuge in the student success program, “Kennedy
said. “To my benefit, Ms. Gravely accepted me back. Because of my struggles and
hard times, I seek new beginning every day and don’t allow the past to cripple
my future. I have learned to have self-valued.”
Choose the right!!!

As Kennedy lay crumpled in her hospital bed
following the accident, she realized that many of her wounds were invisible. “After
the car accident, I suffered from low self-esteem and depression,” she said. “For
years, I allowed someone I loved physically, mentally and emotionally abuse me.”
She had previously tried taking a few DCCC classes, but said she was immature and not ready for academic challenge. She dropped
out. After the accident, she returned to DCCC to take cosmetology classes. She left
school a second time and began working as a certified nursing assistant. After yet
another car accident, she felt unstable, hopeless, and didn't know what to do.

YOU CAN SUCEED IN SCHOOL IF YOU WILL PART 3

As Quansheeba Kennedy reviews her DCCC transcript
in Preparation to transfer to Salem collage, she can hardly believe she has a
3.3 grade point average and that she was accepted into the prestigious private
collage with a selective admissions policy.
It took two false starts before the
22-year-old Thomasville resident found her true calling, elementary education and
more importantly, before she found and reaffirmed the value of herself. She thought
back to when she was only 18 years old but felt “overwhelmed by life.” She had
just graduated from high school when she was in a serious car accident.
“I almost killed myself, not by drinking
and driving not by partying but because I was living life that was
overwhelming.” She said. One must work hard, but not waste time. Goofing off
during school is a killer. It kills your achievement and your chances for
outstanding success now and later.
Choose the right!!!
