When I was in high school, I was a complete perfectionist.... an almost psychotic one. By the time I got to college, the freedom to re-invent myself + no longer wanting to be a psychotic perfectionist lead to some revelations for better or worse:
1) It's easy to get B's. I discovered I could easily pull a B in a class with some effort, but not too much effort and I no longer wanted to kill myself for an A.
2)I have really bad study habits
3)I can read quickly but I tend to lack the comprehension as a result. I have a hard time drawing the line between useless information in textbook and vital info and try to remember everything, thus get frustrated and give up on reading.
I'm trying to break these habits as I try to go back to school. Of course, starting class has brought these habits to light again. Now I just need the persistence to not get frustrated and take the easy way out....
