Black Op Posted March 19, 2004 Report Share Posted March 19, 2004 For my next evil poll, I ask you this (even if it dosen't totally relate to homework, but applies to school, where HW orginates). Which of the above do you need the most improvement in?I choose doing long term assignments, for I hold off on them too much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Tutankhamun Posted March 19, 2004 Report Share Posted March 19, 2004 I am great a homework and classwork, do usually well on tests, I like to participate, and note taking is easy for me. The one thing I did not say I like is ESSAYS! And also proofs and I hate those too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curufinwe Posted March 20, 2004 Report Share Posted March 20, 2004 I was quite shy when I was in High School ... so my main problem was participation ... that was really tough for me to utter any word in class I guess I have changed a lot now because I speak in front of a class Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeru Posted March 20, 2004 Report Share Posted March 20, 2004 Exams stress me out, in particular those with questions which don't directly pertain to the material, but require some thought before answering the question. Also, it seems to me that the distribution of points in the exam is seldom in my favor... But maybe that's just me.I participate a whole lot, do my homework whenever I can, take notes all the time, I'm pretty good at writing essays, and usually can plan ahead for long term assignments. Recently I've been having trouble with that because a lot of exams got in the way, so I'm turning in a History paper 3 days late tomorrow...If there's one thing I had to say that's hard about school, it's being good at all the classes you take. It's like juggling 10 balls and keeping them all in the air!

Tonto_Icy_Tripod Posted March 21, 2004 Report Share Posted March 21, 2004 I absolutely suck at notetaking, but this far that hasn't been too much of a problem. Then again, I never get things done early for longterm assignments either, when I'm working alone. However, when working in groups I tend to do things earlier for some reason, and be quite far ahead...Essays is another thing I hardly ever do well in, mostly since I like to just say what I think, skip basically all the adjectives and such. Teachers don't seem to like that for some reason... I'm worst at taking notes though, so I voted for that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkAngelBGE Posted March 21, 2004 Report Share Posted March 21, 2004 Longterm Assignments. Also hold them off for too long. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rohirwine Posted March 22, 2004 Report Share Posted March 22, 2004 Basicaly i was so hooked by other things (girls, guitar playing, hockey...) that i did not realize i only did the minimum to get through my classes and i thought that every subject was worth. Thus, even if i knew i liked history, i failed to understand that thos was my real interest. This led me to choose biology at the University, after three years i quitted and switched to history, where i'm still bogged down (not easy to study, have a family and work, anyway) So let me give you this counseil to you: stick to what interests you as much as you can...

Mystic-Al-Bob Posted March 22, 2004 Report Share Posted March 22, 2004 I would say Homework in general and the stress with is linked with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chichigrande Posted March 26, 2004 Report Share Posted March 26, 2004 In school I do everything else just fine, I do the homework, tkae the notes, do the projects. But whenever I tkae a test I completely bomb it and end up bringing my grade down a lot. It makes me really mad because I know I can do better.

AK_Thug AMish Posted March 29, 2004 Report Share Posted March 29, 2004 I'm noctorious in my class for never studying for tests, and always doing well on them I also never take notes, and procrastinate just about every essay and project. I'm really not a model student, but I squeak out a 4.4 GPA while doing two sports I really need to work on my essays though, it's difficult for me to organise my thoughts and get the word lengths...

SturgeonSurgeon2000 Posted April 6, 2004 Report Share Posted April 6, 2004 Sounds suspicious. Well, I must say that I am notorious for never studying on my math, and getting F's on it as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
