Petition Letter

Petition Letter: Dear Officer:

I am appealing for enrolling PHYS 104 after deadline of class enrolling. There are many reasons cause me to enroll physics at this time. The major I want to chose for my future studying is psychology. At the beginning of course selecting, I enrolled Bio 102 for my academic study. Nevertheless, I discovered that biology is too hard for me since I did not study biology in high school and some pictures in the biology textbook make me feel uncomfortable.

I missed the deadline of enrolling the class for two reasons. Initially, in the first two weeks, I hesitated too much about whether should I drop biology and enroll physics. I thought I could overcome the challenges in biology at first and miss the deadline at first. Secondly, I got cool in the second week of term so that I did not study too much for biology. Nonetheless, When I reviewed and previewed for biology lecture and do the online quiz on last Sunday, I started to realized that biology is more suitable. Then I started to consider about enroll physics--another science class that I can chose for psychology major. I inquired friends who enroll PHYS 104 about class content and went through the textbook and believe physics is more suitable for me.

I very need to enroll PHYS 104 for my future study. It is will be very thankful to help with enrolling the PHYS 104.

Many Thanks

Yijie Yang

Academic Plan

Academic Plan: For me academic plan, I am preparing to choose psychology or economic as major in future studying. At the beginning of term, I selected Bio102, nevertheless, I discovered that biology is not suitable for me due to some pictures in textbook make me feel uncomfortable, also, since I did not take biology on high school so that it is too hard to study. As I know, many of students who take psychology will study PHYS117, but this class is conflict with my economic class, therefore, I decided to enroll PSYC104 at this time. I have confident to accomplish this class, the reason is I got good grade in physics in high school.
