All other things being equal, the candidate with a B average is going to win out over the C student every time. <br /><br />You, my friend, are in that minority. You truly care about the work you contribute, but you also concern yourself with the purpose of the work. (You may not have realized this back in Profesora's class, but others did!)<br /><br />Graduate school doesn't really press that much more work on students in the whole scheme of things.

A 'C' student comes across as someone is just makes it. A girl at work doesn't care what she gets in college just as long as she has a 'C'. I tell her it will come back to haunt her.<br /><br /> I don't think students appreciate and understand what is to be going on at the different levels of college. At one time I didn't but when I discuss it with people who are in the know I get a better understanding. For many students they don't care how they get the degree, just get it. They don't understand lacking the concepts will only get them so far in college and in their education. I am gradually understanding this myself.<br /><br />one instance for me, I never understand why graduate school and PHD school-why is so much work pushed upon you? It makes no sense, there is not quality in quantity such as that. Then Jackie Reece tells me that the lower levels of school are preparing you to take on more and more and time management so that when you graduate you are very smart and can handle a multitude of tasks together. This concept is like an unwritten rule that not everyone understands-like me at one time.<br /><br />JWJWhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00180993672268077454noreply@blogger.com
