OK, I bought the photoreading personal learning system like some years back (the cassette version) and some liquid fell on the cassettes which were all in a bag, and they all got destroyed, it was funny and sad at the same time because my luck tends to be weird like that. But I still had the book, and tried to make many attempts to make the system work for moi however, i think i was using it at wrong moments in my life. Every time I was trying to use it I was always pressed for time and had deadlines to meet, tests to take. This was all during high school, I would go on and off the system so obviously it didn’t work for me cause I wasn’t with the proper mindset. On occasion I also posted questions in the PR forum,…etc, but this was many months ago, and I attempted to follow the wonderful advice given to me but was too busy to actually learn the system. Im a junior in college now (I will be in Sept) and I’m a computer science major. Although the major computer science is incredibly interesting, its also incredibly hard and my grades have not been good. So far I have taken very few courses towards my major, just 3 ( because at all the other times I was getting all my regular requirements out of the way such as humanities and social science courses ) and I got 10 more comp sci courses to go , but in order to stay in the major, one of course, has to do good in the courses. Bottom line is that the computer course number 3 was a tough course and I failed it. I was so pressed for time, I was working part time and my course load was pretty overwhelming, I did not have the sufficient time to dedicate to my studies. I got a 0.00. The department is rethinking many things about me and wondering if I should continue to be t in the major. I have about 6 weeks before class begins and of course I am so incredibly desperate to stay in the game. Right now I have dug the photo reading book out of where it was buried and I spoke over the phone with my dean and he said that I will still be allowed to continue on in this major for now but of course I have to do well in the next courses or else things will not be good, meaning I will have to do another major.
Computer science consists of writing codes for computer projects and reading text books that have more codes. My goal is to do well in the courses and understand the material well so that I can be successful in the major. Im realistic, I most definitely , don’t expect any A pluses, but I would love to get many B’s . I have not seen many B’s since I got into Bryn Mawr College. So I am prepared to reteach myself the photo reading method in 6 weeks and welcome any advice that can help me towards my goal. I want to do things right this time.
