[nabs-l] Positive news about a grade

[Cory McMahon]

All,

 

First, if this post is not appropriate for this list, feel free to indicate
as such; however, I wish to share with you some positive news regarding my
grade in my Minority Cultures and Relations class:

 

Prior to doing so, however, I feel the need to provide some background: As
some of you who are long-timers on this list are likely aware, I have had
quite a bit of trepidation regarding college. I thought it would be
overwhelming for me to the point that a pursuit of college was unrealistic;
however, since I begun my pursuit of college in January, 2016, I've been
pleasantly surprised. While it's not been easy, it's not been the death of
me, which is definitely a good thing (I've got too many things to do in life
-I'm not ready to die yet!)

 

Anyway, a few weeks ago, I checked my grade for my Minority Cultures class,
and I was failing, with a grade of 57 %; however, when I checked it
yesterday, I've improved my grade to an 81 %. I'm amazed at the quick
turn-around in my grade. If that doesn't show me that college isn't as
bad/overwhelming as I perceived it to be, nothing will!

 

Thank you for indulging me!

 

Sincerely,

 

Cory McMahon
