How we study

I ,too, admit that throughout the years of studying, I felt that in some classes I only learned the art of surviving the subject. It is really necessary for us to contemplate on whether we are learning the subject matter, or just learning to pass the said subject. Many students are actually very smart... that is to learn techniques just to pass, bad or good.

It is important to realize that even though it may be hard to actually "learn" in class, putting our best shot is still the better way to pass. While both ways(just passing and giving our best) are a pass for us, giving our best shot would be better since you actually learn the topic. Also, giving our best shot would enable us to be more independent. While if we just learn to pass, the skills or knowledge that we gathered may be less than what those who gave their best have.

The author/maker of this meme has felt the difficulty in college life. In his/her description for this meme, it is written: "As a Senior in college  - Not sure if I am actually learning in class or… " . I can really relate to this feeling he/she had even if I am not yet a senior because every year it is hard to pass certain subjects. Though I know that everbody is capable of passing with enough perseverance and sacrifice, I feel that some subjects are over the top when it comes to requirements. If only those teachers could only feel what they impose on students, I believe that they would bring down or lessen the amount of work we need to do. But, I am still proud of myself that I passed every subject that I had in the past even if it was hard and tedious. I suggest all the students out there to not procrastinate so that you would not have to suffer and cram in the end because of all the requirements our teachers/mentors/professors give us. Good luck to all the students out there who have their finals!
