Will I be successful… EFFORT How much time do I spend out of class on reading, homework, studying? How much effort do I put into class activities? Am I engaged in class discussions? INTELLECTUAL READINESS How well do I do on tests? (regents level vs. higher level) Do I understand what I am reading – on tests or in text and documents? Am I hitting the analytical points on the essays? Do I understand what a thesis is and how to develop one?

Realities… What is my course load? What are my interests? What extracurricular activities have I committed to? How much am I willing to do next year?
