Academic Plan
The past two years in at Queens university, I have not had a goal for my academic career. Because of this, I was unambitious and lost in what I was to be doing. I recognized this issue early on, after my first year at the university.
However, after a year of self reflection and research. I have reached a conclusion in what my goal should be. I have began talks with an academic advisor in asking them what steps I will have to take to reach that goal.
I will first retake all failed courses to increase my GPA significantly. I will also begin joining more clubs at queens to be more involved with the community. I realized after my second year, that taking lighter course loads were not the solution. Instead I will be taking BIOL 102, Chem 112 and Math 121 along with some failed classes to have a foundation for my goal of getting into medicine.
When the school year begins, I will also consult faculty deans and ask what other steps I could take to reach my goal. I understand that given my past two years, my current academic standing is poor. Because of this, I will need to put in many more hours than my peers. This is something I understand.
