Early College Course Reflection

222 Words1 Page

By participating in Early College program, provided by the school, I had the opportunity to take college courses. I used the program as an advantage to explore careers and one of them was by taking the course, Fashion Merchandising. In this course we were able to show our creativity skills by creating our own designs, having makeovers, and crafting our own magazine. This inspired me to search for a career path that was related to this specific course and therefore decided to major in Marketing (Business). Majoring in marketing will not only allow me to use the skills that I have and have a close similar experience to the course that I took, but it will also allow me to use the skills in special events like providing information to my community,

Not only did it bring economic benefits, but it helped in a way that she could become more confident since she persevered and achieved her dream of earning a degree.

The last message my mom presented to me is to go to college right after high school, get it done right away, and take advantage of opportunities whether it’s tutoring or being able to retake a test, Nonetheless, “ Time management is the utmost, once you get that down you won’t be overwhelmed” this allows any college student to be prioritized and have a “better flow” when it comes to school or college work.
