I am trying a new strategy this semester.
I haven’t really been looking at the grades I have been receiving.
It allows me to be more focused on the classes and not to worry a lot about the grades. If I get an email from one of my professors, I will read it and then check my grade but that has not happened so far. I have taken classes in the past where I received an A, but did not learn anything. So I do not place too much of an emphases on grades. Although, it is still in the back of my mind.
Some people may shy away from the intense 8 week lessons but all in all they work out pretty good. After these 8 weeks, I will have another 3 hours to my name. I now have 18 credit hours to my name.
The Fall 2008 semester has ended on December 16. I am registered to take PSYC 371 Theories in Counseling & Psychotherapy and COUN 501 – Counselor Prof Identity/Function/Ethics.
Some people may shy away from religious colleges, but going over the course plan, after the first two years, you really do not have to take religious courses unless you choose them as an elective. These past 8 weeks have been pretty good. I have gone to religious institutions my whole life. It has been proven that religious educational institutions provide a better education than the other schools.
I do have two papers I need to write. Both have to be 10 pages and written in APA style. I try to be diligent in my studies and assignments but sometime with a family and working full-time it is hard.
But I have to say this, with some of my classes at Liberty University, even though the paper may have a deadline, the professors have been understanding.
And when I get tired and question why I am doing what I am doing, I get great comments of encouragement back from my professors and so I keep going.
