11th Grade best work and reflective essay

What I consider to be my 11th grade best work is my algebra 2b Quiz 4, chapter 4.2 test. I

consider this my best because this is when my whole academic mind process changed. In this

class I had my highs and lows because my test scores would be at a constant score, never below a

fail, but also never higher. For the first semester this is how the whole year went and I was never

satisfied and always contempt after receiving my test back.

When the second semester began my self-awareness progressed immensely. I was now

much more much more proactive in finding out about what I want, and how to achieve that. To

start off, I took into consideration on what I wanted to major in college and the steps I would

have to take to be well rounded in engineering and software development. The requirement for

math is used a lot in these areas and I knew that I would have to strengthen my use of math to

fulfill those needs. This is very important to my personal development as only by accepting my

flaws can I strive to improve them.

In addition to strengthening my weaknesses, I’ve also changed my study habits.

I’ve spent more time on my math assignments, reviewing and taking better notes. By taking

these steps I have earned my first 12 out of 10 score on my math test and I was proud to achieve

this early in the semester. This became the beginning for later test scores because I was

averaging 9 to 10 on each test after that. I always made sure that I would learn the lesson and

integrate the subject so that I would never forget the rules or steps when solving math equations.
