Classmates/Teamwork
I had to learn this the hard way.... there is some talk you listen to and some you ignore in those vaunted SW hallways and the computer room.
Things to pay attention to:
"Did you know we can register for Fall, now?"
"I heard Ms. X was a wonderful clinical instructor."
"Don't forget to do TCPS!"
But people will do their best to scare you and demoralize you, so...
Things NOT to pay attention to:
"I heard 9 out of 10 people fail this class."
"Test #1 is TERRIBLE, nobody makes over 68."
"Paperwork took me FIFTEEN hours last week and when I got it back it was COVERED with red ink and it took me another TEN hours to correct it all."
"Only 13 people made it all the way through without repeating a class!"
I am not the most confident person to begin with, but at some point you have to start believing you can succeed.
