Undergraduate / "Plan ahead", "Better time management", "Always read the instruction first" - UBC personal profile. [2]
Explain how you responded to a significant challenge that you have encountered and what you learned in the process.
"Plan ahead", "Better time management", "Always read the instruction first". I can't remember how many times I have heard these three statements. For me, they became Cliché. However, in the month of January, 2015, I learned. I signed up for two online courses in the beginning of this school year. Without reading the instruction, without worrying much about these two courses, I carried on with my normal school life. Everything changed during the winter break. I finally decided to start these courses. As I read through their instructions, one sentence almost give me a heart attack. "UBC requires all online course to finish before February 1st." That means I only have one month to finish two courses! So why didn't I read the instruction before I sign up? Why didn't I plan ahead and do the courses earlier? Well it is too late to complain. I had to make a plan, manage my time better, and give myself a task everyday. Although there were frustrations, I completed them on time. Now I realized the significance behind planning, time management, and read instructions. And I believe this experience will benefit my life later on, such as university.
Thanks a lot guys
