Well, exam two did not go as well as I had hoped it would. I was one of the people who did do worse in comparison to exam one, but it is all relative. To prepare for the exam I had originally planned on watching all of the lectures, and I only ended up watching three or four. Which, if i remember correctly is more than before. Of course, I read all of the chapters, because it comes quite easily for me and I can do it at a quick enough pace. But I didn't go back and reread as many parts as I would have liked to.
Coming off of the first exam I was looking to improve and better my previous score. I had everything planned out of when it would get done, and it just didn't happen. My life got hectic with work and family, so the plan would be pushed back and I was never able to completely catch up.
In the future for exam three, I will again read all of the chapters, take all of the online quizzes, and do all of the blogs. I also hope to watch more of the lectures and take notes on them. Becasue on the few I have currently watched i wrote very few notes, and it would be nice to be able to look back and remind myself the parameters of the lecture. Also, when I read the chapters I need to be writing down vocabulary and large enough explanation to go along with it. This is because I seem to understand the readings, but when a word or phrase pops up on the online quizzes, i cannot recall what it means in that specific context. I have already began organizing and planning how I will attack each chapter, with each night laid out and what I have to do in order to stay on track. So if I can stay with this plan, I should have no problem improving on the next test. And improvement should not be too difficult considering my score.
