Academic Plan
I have taken many steps to prepare on taking this course and succeeding in it. Firstly, I have friends in the class who have been kind enough to share their notes with me from the first couple weeks. I also have planned to go through review sessions with a few of my classmates before reading week and to re-learn the material that was taught. I have also gotten the textbook and have started reading through the chapters that have been covered with the guidance of the professor (Dr. Snedden) so that I can stay on track with the correct chapters. This week, while I waited for the approval of my department, I attended the class and was able to take my own notes and gage how the pace of the course would be. After attending class this week, I now feel much more confident that I will do well in this course. I know that it will still take lots of time and effort to continue to catch up and stay on track with this course but I am very motivated to get to this point and I also feel much more comfortable with this type of content as well as the resources that I have to help me in this process. With the support of my friends, my professor, the textbook, and the lecture slides, I am very much inclined to perform better in this course than in the computation course I am currently in which provides me with very minimal support and a very great deal of stress and lack of hope. I understand the amount of work I have to do for this addition of a course, but it is certainly much less of a toll than it would to be to possibly be unable to graduate.
