In grade 11 I had two main struggles, one being my ability to balance everything at once. This included my subjects, CAS and other aspects, more related to my personal life. One way which I was able to tackle this was by keeping a schedule of all the different commitments in my life, this helped me have a better idea of the amount of time I had and how I could change certain commitments to help myself with others. What PSE also helped me with is the ability to keep a growth mindset through the year as it helped me stay positive through the process.
Something which I don’t think I have been as successful at is the CAS reflections, this is because I didn’t account for the reflections and ended up leaving them for the last minute which made it hard to finish later on because of the lack of time.
In grade 12, what I know that I will have a challenge it is to finish my EE, this is because our first submission is on the first day back and that means it has to be done on the break. Other struggles include completing the other IA’s especially Computer Science as it is very time consuming and can be very hard to finish. Something which I can do to help me finish includes talking to my supervisor.
