Self-Management System

 Everyone manage their school work differently, but for me I write all my important school information in a small notebook. I use the calender in my ipod to remind me of important events or meetings. I always attend classes because missing just one class leaves you behide. I don't like not knowing whats going on. I always have to be aware or I'll just start cutting class and fail. If I'm doing bad with a class I tend to talk to my professor on what I can do to improve. I don't wanna fail without even trying to pass the class because I  wanna try to passs. It is important for me to make time for my social life. After school i usually hang and talk with my friends. I try not to let school work overwhelm or stress me out. I manage my time by taking small steps to manage everyting. It simple for me to manage school this way because I organize everything and make a list to whats important to the least. I actually don't feel stress out but relax and at easy. =3

Exam Preparation Analysis

1. What logical conclusion about my studying habits and test taking can I draw as a result of this analysis/class discussion?
    My study habits aren't the best. I procrastinate most of the time when I have to study. I leave the studying to the day before the exam. Most of the time I can't get all the information inside my mind before the exam. I also don't ask professors questions when I'm confuse. 
2. What changes can I make to improve my exam performance before the next exam?
  For the next test I should study ahead of time. I should at least study three days ahead to make sure I understood all the information thats going to be on the test. If I really don't understand what going to be on the test I should make sure to ask the professor questions and maybe a review sheet. It's my grade and my responsibility to do well in the end.
