My first Statistics exam....

I got an 86!!! Go, me!!! What a turnaround from the last time I took statistics; I'm really doing well in understanding the information. What's more, I'm applying myself to learning the concepts so that I can understand them and apply them later in life. The only reason it wasn't a total 100 is because of the last two concepts that I didn't quite grasp, but I will definitely go over those again; because I have a feeling that they will be back on the final. In fact, in most math classes, any information you cover during the term is sure to be on the final, so you might wanna hold on to those notes and homework assignments just a little longer. Trust me, you'll be glad you did (speaking from personal experience).

My worry is this week Finance assignment. I wasn't able to submit it through regular means, and I had to submit it through my regular email vs. my Berkeley College email because when I tried to submit the assignment via Blackboard, I kept getting a message that the folder was empty. I hope I don't get a zero for the assignment, and I'll submit my assignments earlier in the future. It wasn't late, by any means (it was due at 6 p.m. this evening), but I mean earlier in the week. But so far, I'm doing well in the class, and I'm going to keep on doing well.

The discussion on what it means to be American is still going pretty strong in my Sociology class. Some students believe that being American only applies to one group; while many of us believe that it encompasses so much more than that, from culture to beliefs to adaptation.
