For the past
week my INQ teacher told us to keep a time schedule to show what each student
does each hour and my there were some outrageous numbers of hours students were
doing. But in class our professor told us to break the time schedule into
sections and the biggest sections that she wanted recorded was the number the
hours you do your homework/ time your doing outside work and the number of
hours you socialize throughout the week. As I started to calculate the total of
hours I did each activity, the amount of homework/ time doing my work outside
of class was 23 hours. According to her statics in class I fell into the C range
of a typical college student because the students who do at least 40 hours a
week earn an A, students who do 30 hours a week fall into the B range, students
who fall into the 20 hours earn a C, students who do 10 hours are in the D
range and for 0 hours are in the F range.
Doing this
experiment taught me a lot about my self and things that I need to work on the
most. Some of the things that I need to work on are that I tend to
procrastinate quite often and that leads me to either do homework late or
finish early because I don’t want to do it or just quit. With doing this week schedule it was sort of
a wake up call for me and I’m glad that I did it.
When it came
for me to calculate the total of number of socializing I did over the week it
came out to be about 18 hours and I felt that that was a great amount due to
the fact that I still manage to get things done and still have time for my
friends. Which is always good so that
you have that balance with your academics and personal life.
Over the
course of my studies in college I plan on being more organized and making sure
that I set a set schedule for myself to follow because throughout my education
life I have always been on a set schedule and I learn best when I have one
because now that I am in college I really don’t have a set schedule and that’s
why I feel that I procrastinate on so many things.
