Laura B.’s Academic Success Story

In high school I was one of the good students who didn’t really have to study to be a good student. The information that I took for notes in class usually sunk in enough for me to be able to get by on the tests by simply reviewing the material just before the class began. It wasn’t that I didn’t try, I had a 4.0 all throughout high school, but I never really had to put forth much of an effort to get the results that I wanted to see. In college however, that changed. Not only did I start studying and reading the book, but I began to understand that the little tiny facts is just as important as the general concepts. My overall study method: I do the reading that is required for the classes, and I try to keep up. If I do fall behind, I usually use the reading that I did not get to as an additional study aid. I take good notes in class and actually attend every class that I can. Sometimes, with volleyball, it’s though because we are on the road a lot, but if I do miss class because of volleyball  I make sure that I get the notes from another student in the class. Also, for a subject such as chemistry, I do practice problems to help me understand what the material means.

"light and darkness cannot exist at the same place.Ctr is the light and Ctw is the darkness"

I believe this statement is partially correct because with darkness there is no light because everybody would be light. Light and darkness cannot exist without each other they are necessary for the world to go round.

My great academic success: In my principles of marketing class, we had to come up with a new product and sell it. My group ended up with a couple supposedly bad students according to our teacher since they were the last ones picked. In the end, they helped out more than they needed since I was team leader I assigned them certain pieces of the project. Write everything you know about what you’ve learned or what you’re studying for in the class. If you don’t remember everything or start drawing blanks you know about what you’ve learned or what you’re studying.

  How I’ve overcome an initial bad grade: When receiving a bad grade, I just try to do better on the second exam and study harder. It’s hard when you have your first test in your class and have no idea what to expect. The second one is usually easier since you know what to expect from your teachers.

My strategies for written assignments: Start early and make sure that you have it proofread. Also, with written assignments, having a timeline planned out can help like by setting a certain number of pages done by a certain day before the paper is due.   

How I succeed in team projects: COMMUNICATION! Despite your group synergy, communication is crucial. I remember I ran out of cell phone minutes constantly while working on a group project for my marketing research class. It’s really important that everyone is on the same page and getting the same emails. The worst is when two people are working on the same portion of the project and don’t even realize it.

Heather A’s Success Story
in high school I didn’t study much in groups as I do in high school. 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 have very different techniques . for financial tests, I try to work on problems given in class as well as problem from power point 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 learned 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/tests: I try to work on whatever has the shortest deadline and work from there. My overall study method: I tend to do massive blocks of about an hour or so in order to really learn the material

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 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 a new beginning every day and don’t allow the past to cripple my future. I have learned to have self-value.

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 esteem and depression,” she said. “For years, I allowed someone I loved  to physically, mentally and emotionally abuse me.” She had previously tried taking a few DCCC classes, but she said she was immature and not ready for accident, she returned to DCCC to take some 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

As Quansheeba Kennedy review her DCCC transcript in preparation to transfer to Salem College, she can hardly believe she has a 3.3 grade point average and that she was accepted into the prestigious private college with a selective admissions policy.

It took two false starts before 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 a life that was overwhelming,” she said. One must work hard, nut not waste time. Goofing off during school is a killer. It kills your achievement and your chances for outstanding success now and later.

“Though I graduated from an associate degree program, I felt that my instructors provided me with the same theory and knowledge as those students completing their bachelor’s degree program in clinical laboratory science,” Mishak added.

“When I started my clinical rotations at wake forest university Baptist Medical Center, I felt that my formal education at DCCC prepared me to succeed at every challenge  that I faced. Since I was the among the first MLT students to rotate through WFUBMC, I think this strong foundation in laboratory science enabled me to dispel many of the preconceived ideas about MLTs regarding their education and what they are able to do.” After a year working as a medical laboratory technician at children healthcare of Atlanta, he was promoted to a hematology, coagulation, and flow cytometry sections of the laboratory.
