“YOU WILL GO FAR WITH CTR”

You will go far with CTR. You might be asking why? We’ll let me tell you that there are a lot of people that don’t care about the right thing they go straight to the bad! That’s their first error you should always be looking to the good side. The bad will never ever take you to a good place.

People that choose the wrong will always look back and say “I should have just done right and bad thing wouldn’t be happening to me,” see there is the problem they sometimes are too late and can’t do anything about it what’s done is done. Enough of the wrong people know lets go to the ones who do choose the right I guarantee you that good thing will come to you. Also the important thing your conscience will be clean and you won’t have to be worrying of something bad you did because you didn’t do anything. Choosing the right is a big responsibility I always tries to do the right to be honest I don’t choose the right every day. The right will take you somewhere in life like for example I want to be a nurse when I grow up I want to be someone I want to earn good money see all that starts off by choosing the right. I know that this “choosing the right “could get annoying sometimes but I promise you that it will e worth it because no one can force you to choose the right it depends on you right there but before you make a decision think about it twice cause you could be wrong and you will regret it for the rest of your life. So I will let you guys think about that and remember to CHOOSE THE RIGHT YOU WILL GO FAR!!

Laura B.’s academic story

In high school I was one of the good students who didn't really have to study to be good student. The information that I took for notes in class usually sunk in enough for me to be able to get on the tests by simply reviewing the material just before the class began. It wasn't that I didn't try, I had a 4.0 all throughout high school, but I never had to put forth much of an effort to get the results that I wanted to see. In collage however, that changed. Not only did I start studying and reading the book, but I began to understand that the little tiny facts were just as important as the general concepts. My overall study method: I do the reading that is required for the classes, and try to keep it up. If id o fall behind, I usually use the notes in class and actually attend every class that I can. Sometimes, with volleyball, it’s tough because we are on the road a lot, but if I do miss class of volleyball I make sure that I get the notes from another student in the class. Also, for a subject such as chemistry, I do practice problems to help me understand what the materials mean.

How I’ve overcome an initial bad grade: when receiving a bad grade, I just try to do better on the second exam and study harder. It’s hard when you have your first test in a class and have no idea what to expect. The second one is usually easier since you know what to expect from your own teachers.

My strategies for written assignments: start early and make sure that you have proofread. Also, with written assignments, having a timeline planned out can help like by setting a certain number of pages done by a certain day before the paper is due

How I succeed in team projects: COMMUNICATION:  Despite your group synergy, communication is crucial. I remember I ran out of cell phone minutes constantly when working on a group project for my marketing class. It’s really important that everyone is on the same page and getting the same emails. The worst is when two people are working on the same portion of the project and don’t even realize it.

Heather A.’s Academic success story in high school, I didn’t study much in group as I do in high school. I feel I learn better when I can teach other people information and we can exchange notes taken in class because sometimes other student pick up on more important information than others.

My overall study method: I prefer to study in small groups and practice problems where I can work out the methods verbally with others. My test study method: I have very different techniques. For financial tests, I try to work on problems given in class as well as problems from power points and homework. When it comes to marketing classes, I review my notes and try to make diagrams to describe different processes.

My time management secret: one of my biggest secrets is to look over the information, it sticks a little bit than waiting until the night before the test.

How I deal with multiple projects/tests: I try to work on whatever has the shortest deadline and work from there. My overall study method: I tend to do massive studying blocks of about an hour or so in order to really learn the material.

As Kennedy lay crumpled in her hospital be following the accidents, she realized that many of her wounds were invisible.” After the car accident, I suffered from low self-esteem and depression,” she said. “For years, I allowed someone I loved to physically, mentally and emotionally abuse me.”

She had previously tried a few DCCC classes, but she said she was immature and not ready for academic challenges. She dropped out. After the accident, she returned to DCCC to take cosmetology classes. She left school a second time and bean working as a certified nursing assistant.

As quansheeba kennedy reviews her DCCC transcript in preparation to transfer to salem college, she can hardly believe she has a 3.3 grade point average and that she was accepted into the prestigious private college with a selective admissions policy.

It took two false starts before the 22-years old Thomasville resident found her true calling, elementary education, and more importantly, before she found and reaffirmed the value of herself. She thought back to when she was only 18 years old but felt “overwhelmed by life.” She had just graduated from high school when she was in serious car accidents.

“I almost killed myself, not by drinking and driving not by partying, but because I was living a life that was overwhelming,” she said. One must work hard, but not waste time. Goofing off during school is a killer. It kills your achievement and your chances for outstanding success now and later.

“Though I graduated from an associate degree program, I felt that my instructors provided with me the same theory and knowledge as those students completing their bachelor’s degree program in clinical laboratory science,” Mishak added.

“When I started my clinical rotations at Wake Forest University Baptist Medical Center, I felt that my formal education at DCCC prepared me to succeed at every challenge that I faced. Since I was the among first MLT students to rotate through WFUBMC, I think this strong foundation in laboratory science enable me to dispel many of the preconceived ideas about MLTs regarding their education and what they are able to do.” After a year working as a medical laboratory technician at children’s Healthcare of Atlanta, he was promoted to a Hematology Analytical Specialist position.

Chris mishmak who earned a degree in medical laboratory technology from DCCC, is the second MLT graduate from DCCC to be accepted into physician assistant’s school. In august 2011, mishak will begin studying at Emory University in Atlanta to become a physician assistant. He says DCCC prepared him to transfer to Winston-Salmen State University, where he earned his undergraduate degree in clinical laboratory science in 2004. Since then, he worked in the lab at children’s Health of Atlanta.

“ I leaned pretty much everything that I needed to know about laboratory science at DCCC. Many of the clinical applications that I learned there I still use today either in my medical volunteering in phlebotomy or in the duties of current job, which includes training new technologist on cell identifications” said mishak .

It’s pretty easy to be successful in school. If students work hard and honorably, it’s not difficult at all. All students need to do is study, put in the time; it’s as simple as that. If students aren’t willing to study now, it will be very difficult to develop this habit later on. Therefore, I suggest that students work hard in their studies and at being good people, doing nothing to get them in trouble during high school. By doing so, they will enjoy success during high school and throughout their lifetime.

Andrea packer anticipates graduating with a B.A  in education from Catawba in December 2011 and then enrolling in the master of arts in teaching program from Salem collage, also offered on the Davidson campus working 29 hours a week as a teaching assistant for instructors in the DCCC early childhood education program.

“Not only did receiving this scholarship make me study harder and be the best I could be, but is also allowed me to graduate in May 2010 with my associate degree totally paid for,” she said.” I couldn’t believe I had my first degree, and I was debt free. What a wonderful blessing!”

If students work hard during high school, complete all assignments on time, and demonstrate a bright, positive attitude towards school learning, and other people, then they can be highly successful as a high school student and qualify for academic scholarships. All they need to do is put in the time, study time. All the hard work and effort during high school will definitely pay off. They will be rewarded for their hard work. But if they just mess around during their high school years and neglect their studies, use drugs, and mistreat others, then they can expect to fall short of what could have been their rewards of scholarships and other opportunities, and they will suffer in the short and long term.

“Just like volleyball, nursing can be tough,” said Watkins, a 21-year old who works in teams with her classmates in problem- based nursing exercise. “I learned that everyone has a different strength and brings something different to the table. I also learned that we have to respect each other.”

Watkins is May 2012 candidate to receive her associate degree in nursing. She hopes to purse her B.S.N. at Winston-Salem University and eventually get her master’s degree in nursing.

· Many people avoid making decisions their whole lives, so their decisive faculty of mind, the faculty of discrimination, becomes rusty and dies. Such people become totally dependent on others. When we study the four functions on the mind –buddhi, the faculty of decisiveness; ego, the principle of identity; chitta, the storehouse of impression, and mana, the importer and exporter of sensations and experience-then we become aware of power of will. Will power is that something within us that comes forward and says,” training the internal functions helps us to understand the decisive faculty of the mind, without which we cannot be successful.

· Watch what you do on a daily basis. We become what we do and think about. If you think about nothing-you will become nothing. If you think about being a great student- you will become a great student. If you think about being honest-you will be honest.

·    Students know they should learn to decide on time, but they don’t do it. They always say, “Well, I knew it. I understood the key, but I said not act in time.” Through they may think correctly, and accurately understand the situation properly, they suddenly lose confidence. This is world of competition; someone else is always trying to attain the same thing we are. So if we do not decide on time, someone else will attain what we want. Time is valuable in the external world. A tender bamboo can easily bent, but if we try to bend a mature bamboo. It will break. That which we have to do today, we should also not make decisions in haste. We may have a setback if we make a wrong decision, but our mistakes will teach us.

·    We must learn from the successes and mistakes of others. When we see another student succeeding greatly and honorably, learn how they did it and pattern your studies after their. Also, on the other hand, when you see others students failing miserably, learn how they do it and AVOID doing what they do or else you will join the them in the failure’s club.
