This semester I have made many improvements; one major improvement is keeping track of my assignments on a white board I keep on my wall. When I get home from class I fill out the assignments I received for that day and do as many of them as I can. This is very helpful because I don't fall behind on my assignments, and I keep up with homework. Another improvement is going to my classes. Before this semester I was lazy and missed far too many classes. By simply going to my classes, my grades have changed greatly. I know when homework assignments are due, exam times, and I kmow so much more of the information we learn..
