Mid-Term Grades

Though I had a feeling that mid-term was in session, I also had a feeling of uncertainty until this weekend. My siblings announced aloud the grade they have received for a certain class. Though I had a feeling of annoyance, at the same time, I was also anxious to know what letter grade I have received for each of my classes. I decided to log onto my PRISM account through the UW-Sheboygan website, in order to check my mid-term grades. Out of all my four classes, my professor for CPS 110 had submitted my mid-term grade as a C-. 

My mid-term result for CPS 110 made me really disappointed because I was either hoping for the highest grade of an A, or the lowest grade of a B-. I stood blank at the screen, feeling really disappointed and angry, mumbling why I had not received a better grade letter. I kept asking myself over and over, and could not get the answer at the same moment. I sat on the green carpet of my house, staring straight into my white Toshiba laptop, wondering if thinking about how my progressed in the class could have affected my that letter grade.

Finally, when I came upon a conclusion, I was feeling more relieved and less stressful. I had concluded that CPS 110 was the only class I did not really gave full focus to. Unlike, History, Calculus, and English, I hardly have time to read the book assigned for the class. And I have not knowledge of any of my quizzes or exams, but only about my assignments that were grade electronically by the professor. And for those assignments, I received full points, making me feel confident about my grade letter. 

As of right now, I have made a log on how I what I have to improve, in order for my grade letter to raise to either a B or A. I have decided that on Tuesday, I will finally start giving myself more time to read the text. I decided not to choose Monday instead because I will have little time to spare, especially if I have to take my niece and nephew out to trick-or-treat. I will also be fully prepared for all my quizzes and exams in the class. And take on any extra-credit available and given to me by the professor of the classroom. I guess my mid-term grade can make me really wonder what I can do to improve my grade letter, and I am glad to know that I have received a C-. This will give me such an opportunity to improve my occupation as a student, and to stop procrastinating.
