Academic Plan
As written in the appeal letter here are some of the changes that I plan to implement to contribute to my academic planning in the Fall Semester:
¿¿ Continuing the journey with my doctor and/or therapist to find a solution to my mental health needs and ultimately working on reducing test taking anxiety and creating stronger study habits (scheduling time, exercising, tracking)
¿¿ Making use of the myriad of health and wellness resources that Queens has to offer. I¿¿ve already learned a few things about creating stronger study habits from the resources that were highlighted during the PSYCH 100 course
¿¿ Using note-taking apps like Quizlet (a resource I learned about during PSCYH 100) to help plan study sessions and make them more manageable
¿¿ Following some of the strategies that I have learned from the book Atomic Habits which offers advice and practical strategies for creating lasting positive habits
¿¿ Group study. What I mean by this is simply studying with others who are studying in my community. This is an easily accessible resource to me as there are lots of others who are studying online in my community. Putting myself in an environment with like-minded individuals will motivate me on my trajectory to success.
¿¿ Mindfulness practices are an important strategy in my coping toolkit that I intend to implement consistently in my next academic endeavor.
I also intend to reach out to the academic advisor for assistance on this matter.
