Summer Term Finished!

That’s right, it’s that time again when I post about how I surprised myself yet again with another A. Summer term was dedicated to #microbiology and boy was it a doozy. But I did it! Aced my final, aced majority of my assignments and lab, and most importantly aced this class. It’s nice to see that #GPA I royally forked up many years ago start creeping back up again.

Now it’s time for #fallterm and that makes me feel even more anxious because I haven’t attended a lecture/lab in person in AGES and of course it’s #anatomyandphysiology . All I can do is continue with this trajectory and prove to myself that I truly am one #BAMF

... Read moreEarning top grades in a challenging course like Introductory Microbiology is no small feat and can be incredibly rewarding. Many students find that consistent study habits, active participation in lab work, and seeking help when concepts are unclear are key factors in maintaining a strong GPA. The excitement of seeing your GPA improve after struggles earlier in your academic journey can be a powerful motivator. As the Fall term approaches, transitioning into a new subject like Anatomy and Physiology may bring a mix of anticipation and anxiety, especially if you haven’t attended in-person classes for a long time. The good news is that staying positive and building on your recent successes can give you confidence. It helps to preview course materials, organize your study schedule early, and engage with peers or instructors to ease back into face-to-face learning environments. Remember, balancing coursework with self-care is crucial during demanding terms. Incorporating regular review sessions, practical application of material, and using diverse learning resources can make a significant difference. Embracing your personal growth journey, from overcoming GPA setbacks to becoming a 'BAMF', shows resilience and determination—qualities that will serve you well throughout your academic and professional life.
