Academic Challenges

Hi Everyone,

If there was one thing about your academic challenges , what would it be?

I think for me my challenge is to stay motivated to finish what I have started. This is my very first time attendinding a university, and to have started this in an online seetting is a huge step for me. I am a person that is not very outspoken but, more on the quiet side unless I am pushed into talking. I chose online classes because I feel that it pushes me to put myself out on-the-limb to open myself up to make friends and talk more. Since I have started classes here at Kaplan I have been more than happy with my experiences. My sister and I started atending Kaplan at the same time and we do use each other for support, It seems that we are a great team . I give her motivation and pep talks if she is on a low and she does the same for me. I like that fact that Kaplan does have a lot of support for if you do have a problem you can always talk to your academic advisor and you professors. I think that I am really giving my children endless possibilities for their own life, and letting them know that no matter how old you are the sky is the limit; you just have to reach for it and you can accomplish anything. I feel I do have the drive to go forward and suceed. I am looking forward to walking down the aisle when my name is called to recieve my degree with a big smile on my face and all of my family and friends cheering me on!!!
