2. Write about the areas on the self-assessment in which you had your highest scores. Explain why you think you scored higher in these areas than in others. Also, explore how you feel about these scores. Your entry might begin, "By doing the self-assessment, I learned that I ..." By doing the self assessment i also learned that my highest score was 70 which is that i discovered self motivation i am actually kind of proud of myself that i did good score in this area because i used to not be good at it, but lately i have been trying hard to get better in this area. Last year I wasn't the best college student, but now I am really motivated to do better in school and improve my grades. I realized that now until my last year in college that I'm going to need a lot of motivation. I have a lot of assignments due in a couple of days and I have the tendency to procrastinate a lot. I've been doing a good job though and I really hope I can keep this up and stay on track. Employing Interdependence and gaining self awareness is another couple areas that I scored high in with a 67and 57 because I like working with other people, I am better off working with a group than working alone. I like group work because I feel like I can get more things done faster and that others can help me understand what I need to accomplish and provide feedback on how I can do better on the task that needs to be done . I didn't pass biology in high school because it was my favorite subject. I passed it because it was really easy for me because I had a great teacher who let us work together in groups and she had games like kahoot to help us remember the information we needed for our quizzes and exams . It really benefited me in the end because she made it so easy for us to remember information that I would pass all the exams and

quizzes. Write about the areas on the self-assessment in which you had your lowest scores. Explain why you think you scored lower in these areas than in others. Also, explore how you feel about these scores. Remember the saying "If you keep doing what you've been doing, you'll keep getting what you've been getting." With this thought in mind, write about any specific changes you'd like to make in yourself during this course. Your entry might begin "By doing the selfassessment, I also learned that I...." By doing the self assessment I also learned that I need to control my emotions and not let them get in the way. My lowest score was a 45 in developing emotional intelligence and 49 in self management. I am also not surprised that I scored low in this area. I am the only girl in the house with younger two brothers, and I need to improve on my anger at their disturbances. When I am angry, I am angry. When I am sad and depressed it is sometimes hard for me to control it. I am not surprised by these scores. I have struggled with self management, time management for a long time. I have found that if I don’t discipline myself but set standards, I will accomplish absolutely nothing. It's weird because I like helping other people and helping them with their needs but find it a little harder to help myself and focus on my needs. I enjoyed this self-assessment because it reminds me of what I need to do to improve....
