Florida Memorial University Top Questions

To adjust my schedule around when I'am most productive and creative. Most people told me to do my work first thing after class, but for me I'am nocturnal and do my best work at night. Sometimes I'm most productive the hour before my assignment is due. Overall my advice would be to myself, is that i don't need to listen to others when they tell me to be more organized or plan better, because different things work for diffrent people.

The advice I would of give myself was to make all A's. The reason you need to make all A's is because college is very expensive. In addition you need to save all your money. College is not an easy transition so also you would have to practice to make sure you get high SAT scores. You also need to apply to alot of scholarships because every penny helps. You need to go to different organizations asking for sponsors. Never give up on your dream because it can become a reality.

Breathe, a word that I often constantly remind my inner self as college work piles up, and the desire to be better follows me around like a shadow. "Remember that things will work out for the best" would be a phrase that I would whisper in my high school senior self's ear as she cried, and swore that she would not be able to attend any school. She's exhausted every financial aid website, and stares hopelessly at her GPA created by years of not caring. What she doesn't know was that although she waited to the final years of High School to become conscious of her grades she would find a home in a college. She wouldn't know that attending a Community College allowed her parents to save money, and afford to send her the next year to her dream school in Florida, where she will finally feel unburdened by the stress of being on the outside looking in. Terrified of the new, she will make friends, and love the independence that an out of state college would give her. "Why are you so scared? This is a magical time."

Dear High School me, After being in college for a few years, the best advice I can possibly give you is to take as many college credit classes as possible. Furthermore, decide what you want to major in by 10th grade so that you choose your courses and electives accordingly. Moreover, continue playing sports instead of working so that you can pursue a scholarship and maintain a strong gpa throughout high school. Ultimately, don't worry about pressures of high schools because the reality is that the pressures and the stresses are just beginning but mentally prepare yourself by studying more than is required. But don't forget to enjoy the spirit of being in high school because once it's gone you'll miss it. In short, work hard and be ambitious about what you want to achieve, seek help when it's necessary, enjoy the short time in high school, and participate in school events so when you leave you will have the memories of having done those things and your presence and legacy will continue to thrive and influence students you leave behind.

I f I cloud go back in time and know what I know now. As a high school senior I would tell myself get more involved as well as to be way more focus than what I was. The better grades you gain, the more awards you are able to gain for funding for school. These funds leave you less stress as an adult when you’re trying to think of way to buy books for college and make a living (if you’re on your own). The foremost objective in high school is to just stay focus and strive for the best. As a senior you want to be active get out and meet people have fun because you never know who you will meet and what great opportunities are available.

Hi , it may sound weird but you have to pay attention to what I have to say to you right now. Take my words to heart and follow them. You may be wondering this guy looks awfully familiar he even kind of sounds like me. Truth be told, I am you but in the future. I have come all these years in the past to warn and advice you from the future. I lead a good life nowadays, but if you listen and do what I tell you, you will live a great life. You will be able to travel to any place you want; do all the things you want to do; play sports professionally; or have a really good career. Study hard not just to pass but to be the best, be wise. Play hard, you are talented, play with heart, if you dream of being a professional athlete you will be one. Dedicate yourself to it, discipline yourself in whatever task or dream you have and you shall have it, whether it’s in sports or any career you choose. This is my advice Ingo: Focus, discipline, study and play hard and you will conquer the world.

I would surely tell myself to work harder, obtain as much information as possible and to give 110 {4a082faed443b016e84c6ea63012b481c58f64867aa2dc62fff66e22ad7dff6c} on each test. I would inform myself that the transition from high school to college isn't a piece of cake and I need to take it serious. The journey will be full of ups and downs therefore I need to not dwell on the mistakes I will make. One thing though to eliminate some mistakes from occuring all I have to do is to allow myself to take heed to the information that i'm giving. I would encourage myself to be more active in numerous school functions, volunterer more in my community, and have more school pride. Therefore allowing me to already be use to doing such activities leading into college. I believe if I was able to go back this here little bit of advise would definitely make a impact on my present today.

Attending college is one of the greatest experiences, knowing what I know now I would weigh my options of different schools before I make a choice of which one I choose. My advice to myself would be to go to summer school after I graduated high school to get into Delware State, at times I regret coming to Florida Memorail for at this school you can not always succeed because its who you know here and nothing is base on grades, that I feel I work hard for to not receive help from the school regarding cover a balance. My advice to the young 18 year old of myself would be to weigh my options of colleges.

If i could go back to tell myself about college life. i would definitly tell myself to do scholorhips and participate in school activites. i will also tell myself to apply to many college and do research on what i want to do in my future. also i can tell myself to stay focused and use the help thats provided. College life sometimes feel like your there alone so therefore i would always pay attention to directions that are given uch a how to utilize a syllabus and ect... Also studying i a must in college because tests are there to test your knowledge and its a remider on what you will e doing in the future when you start your career. Also work on a good great point average o you can be excepted into colleges of your first choice. I alo knw that college life is an very fast and independent life. It also allows you to grow and make wise deciions that can affect your life.

study hard, but still have fun. girls will be there , stay focus on you. its alright to try new things and go different places

If i could go back in time and talk to myself as a high school senior there is so much i would tell myself. First being a high school senior i alaready knew i was going to go to college that was never an issue but what i didnt know is how hard and tough the transition was going to be. As a high school senior i would have told myself to be more ready and focused because college is a big step and everything changes once your here. I would also tell myself that i need to get even more serious and ready to go into the real world. I would also tell myself, To grow up fast because when entering ollege it is a whole new new atmopshere and to prepare yourself. The work in college is much more tougher than the work as a senior in high school. Playing around as a high school senior i would have told my self to stop and get it together because acting like that when entering college is not accpetable because people will expect for anyone coming to college to be mature. Come with a fresh, calm, and good attitude.

I would tell my high school self to take advantage of every opportunity given. With age comes wisdom but illness also comes along. As a recent cancer survivor I am viewing life in a different light. I have always wanted to be successful but didnt take this thought as serious as I should've while at Florida Memorial. I would study harder and do more networking. I would also explore other careers than aren't the "norm". There are alot of occupations in the world that are unknown to those raised in urban environments.

In the beginning of my semester I was worried I would get lost around campus, and that I would fail my first term. Fortunatley I didn't. I'm currently on the deans list, and I have a 3.6 GPA. I like the fact that I attend a small college because the professors are very helpful. They actually take the time out to help their students. They offer great opportunities for their students. I reccomend this University to everyone.

My college experience is a extrodenary feeling , because your next step is being a full adult . College let you be your own person, you determine rather you want to go to class or not or doing very immature things that will get you kick out of school. No parents around only you and your peers. It teaches you responsiblilty and time management. Without those two characteristics. You are not going graduate college. Now days you are going to need a good job to pay your bills. We are in a recession and working at a fasr food resturant , making minimum wage. You are not going to pay your car note,house bills, or even save money. Now if you have a college degree , there are alot of good paying jobs : you can get hire for.

College has helped me a lot through the high school career. it has taught me that everything requires work, not just sit on your but flat. that wont get me anywhere. i have to work and study hard to achieve anything i have planned for the future

In my college experience ive gained the knowledge that this is not high school and there not going to make you go to class if you dont want to. Being in college yea its that step to saying your growing as a person and now you are maturing and you have more responsibilties, but the point is are you willing to take all of that and grow from it. Just attending school period I feel like it has halped me grow and mature into the young lady I appear to be today. Out of all the experiences I had in life my college experience has been the best.

i think with out some type of dagree you won't make it in the world . college is a big door opener to this worl force

Well being that I am the first of my family’s many generations to attend college. It means a great deal to me as well as my family. I will have accomplished something that no one has ever done in my family. Secondly, as a woman I believe that education is key to success, allowing me to want to go through college and experience new things. During my freshman/ sophomore year I lived offcampus with family, and I would have to say that it was not all that fun, or interesting. I was inactive at school and that bothered me. However once I moved on campus, I was always up to date on what’s going on, no longer feel left out of events, its more convenient and I love it to be honest it’s a sense of relief away from people that you see everyday due to relations. I have learned a lot thus far in my college experience as far as interacting with people. Due to the fact that my school is somewhat international I also have learned a lot about other countries. It has been very valuable to attend school at Florida Memorial. I love it.

The most important thing I have gotten out of my college experience is knowledge. It is so exciting to be able to learn and achieve so many things in the class room. Because my school has smaller class sizes my professors are able to help me and my peers on a one on one bases while in class, so I get more out of my experience. Knowing that I am able to learn and actually comphrehend the material on a day to day basis is awesome! I know that once I graduate I will not just be graduating for a diploma, but for a clear and understanding outlook in my particular field of study.
