3. Don’t lose perspective – stay focused on the big picture. One data point (e.g. test score) will NOT determine your final grade. Your grade in this class is more a result of your behavior and the choices you make during the semester than intelligence or ability. –Come to EVERY class PREPARED –Don’t quit –Get help EARLY –Hold YOURSELF accountable for results Everyone who WANTS to pass this class will, if they consistently make the right choices.
