I Will Persist Until I Succeed Part 1

Heather A’s Academic Success Story

In high school, I didn’t study much in groups as I do in high school. I feel I learn better when I teach other people information and we can exchange notes taken in class because sometimes other students pick up on more important information than others. 

My overall study method: I prefer to study in small groups and practice problems where I can work out the methods verbally with others.

My test study methods: I have very different technologies. For financial test, I try to work on my problems given in class as well as problems from power points and homework.  When it comes to marketing class, I review my notes and try to make to make diagrams to describe different processes.

My time management secret: one of the biggest secrets is to look over the information that you just learned when class is over. After reviewing the information, it sticks a little bit better than waiting until the night before the test.

How I deal with multiple projects/test: I try to work on whatever has the shortest deadline and work from there. My overall study method: I tend to do massive studying blocks of about an hour or so in order to really learn the material.

After some serious soul-searching, Kennedy decided she was made for a purpose: to be successful and to fulfill who she was destined to be. She returned to DCCC “with determination and a mindset that I would not fail with God leading me.”

She says her first semester back was difficult. “I knew I could find refuge in the student success program,” Kennedy said. “To my benefit, Ms. Gravely accepted me back. Because of my struggle and hard times, I seek a new beginning every day and don’t allow the past to cripple my future. I have learned to have self-value.

As Kennedy lay crumbled in her hospital bed following the accident, she realized that many of her wounds where invisible. “After the car accident, I suffered from low self-esteem and depression,” she said.  “For years, I allowed someone I love to physically, mentally and emotionally abuse me.”

She had previously tried taking a few DCCC classes, but said she was immature and not ready for academic challenge. She dropped out. After the accident, she returned to DCCC to take cosmetology classes. She left second time and began working as a certified nursing assistant. After yet another car accident, she felt unstable, hopeless, and didn’t know what to do.

As Quansheeba Kennedy reviews her DCCC transcribed in preparation of transfer to Salem College, she can hardly believe she has a 3.3 grade point average and that she was accepted to prestigious private college with a selective admissions policy.

It took two false starts before the 22-year-old Thomasville resident fond her true calling. Elementary education, and more importantly, before she found and reaffirmed the value of herself. She thought back to when she was 18 years old but felt “overwhelmed by life.” She had just graduated from high school when she was in a serious car accident.

“I almost killed myself, not by drinking or driving, bot by parting, but because I was living a life that was overwhelming,” she said. One must work hard, but not waste time. Goofing off during school is a killer. It kills your achievements and you chance of outstanding success now and later

“Though I graduate from an associate degree program, I felt that instructors provided me with the same theory and knowledge and those student completing their bachelor’s degree program in clinical laboratories science,” Mishak added.

“When I started my clinical rotations at Wake Forest University Baptist Medical Center, I felt that my formal education at DCCC prepared me to succeed at every challenge that I faced. Since I was the among first MLT students to rotate through FWUBMC, I think this strong foundation in laboratory science enabled me to dispel many of my preconceived ideas about MLTs regarding their education an what they are able to do.” After a year working as a medical laboratory technician at Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta, he was promoted to Hematology Analytical Specialist position.
