Your First Semester
- Tell us how you have grown from the beginning of the semester to now.
- I want to say that I’ve grown to be more confident and I’ve kind of gotten the ebb and flow of college now
- What were your expectations for this year? Did this semester’s experiences meet your expectations? Explain.
- Not really,but that’s mainly my fault because I didn’t really get into doing the activites that I normally enjoy due to not attending a lot of events
- What is something you wish you knew 14 weeks ago?
- Review and study as soon as the class ends!! and that NOTHING is free
Study Habits
- How much time do you spend studying for each class now vs. at the beginning of the semester?
- I spend i want to say maybe 4 to 6 hours studying depending on how well i know the material now,But in the beginning I didn’t really have much of a routine
- How have your study habits changed?
- I’ve learned that I’m a tactile and visual learner so printing out practice worksheets and looking at diagrams has helped me tremendously
- Tell us about a resource that you have used/learned about this semester that will assist you next semester.
- I learned about the University Library Database and how to navigate it and I used it in its entirety for a research project that I had and it’s extremely useful!
- What study habits/techniques will you use going into next semester?
- Study early on and do more active recall,bascially reading the material to myself and taking it in
- This semester you were enrolled in at least SOC 201S, and HLTH 101. Many of you were also enrolled in CHEM 105N and CHEM 106N, and some of you were enrolled in HIST 104H with Professor White.
- On the surface these classes do not appear to be connected; however this semester each professor was intentional about drawing connections between content, and subjects discussed. Discuss the ways in which these courses are tied together.
- They all have a focal point in health and how someone proximity to good healthcare can affect their everyday life

- Parallel Plan
- This semester we had presentations from different majors in the College of Health Sciences as well as from different majors on campus. This was to give you an idea for possible parallel majors to your current intended major.
- Which two other majors would you be most interested in? Why?
- Speech Language Pathology,Public Health
- What benefit is there to having a parallel plan (or two) in place?
- They’re both majors that I would be equally happy with if nursing doesn’t work out
- How could one or both of these two majors benefit your current intended major?
Public health could benefit my current major because it talks about how healthcare and other factors can affect a person’s life.
