Coming into college, I was told that classes would be much harder than high school so I did not know what to expect of my GPA. However, in high school I took many rigorous classes so that I would be prepared for the tough course load I would have in college. I made sure to study a lot so that I would perform well on my assessments. At the end of the semester, I achieved a 4.0 GPA. This was significant for me because my hard work paid off, with the fact that I put in studying I did not necessarily enjoy to do well in my classes. I hope to transfer this work ethic into my job after college, so that I work hard on all my tasks no matter how much I enjoy them so I am able to be successful at my role. This has given me more confidence and a better work ethic because I know that if I put in time and work I can succeed at whatever role I am in.
